Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox - The Future Is Vintage World Tour
About This Event
Scott Bradlee and his rotating Postmodern Jukebox ensemble come to Town Hall, presenting contemporary pop reworked into swing, jazz-pop and other vintage idioms. Bradlee, a pianist-arranger known for adapting modern hits to a changing roster of vocalists, emphasizes craft and stylistic specificity in arrangements that foreground period stylings rather than spectacle.
About The Future Is Vintage World Tour
At Town Hall, Scott Bradlee brings Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox to New York for “The Future Is Vintage World Tour,” a jazz-leaning concert built on rearrangements of recent pop songs in older idioms. The lineup shifts from tour stop to tour stop, with vocalists and instrumentalists rotating through Bradlee’s charts. PMJ emerged in the 2010s as a YouTube-native project, part of a broader moment when online performance became a real feeder system for live stages. The result can feel less like parody than a case study in how arrangement changes what a song communicates.
