Famed “Pop music in a Time Machine” concert act Postmodern Jukebox has announced a new WorldTour to celebrate the dual milestone of their 10th anniversary of touring and their 1,000th show in 2024 - Dubbed The ‘10’Tour.
Concertgoers can expect a dazzling, inspiring trip through the PMJ Universe — where modern-day
earworms and iconic pop hits alike are reimagined in classic genres like 1920s jazz, Swing, Doo-wop
and Motown, and brought to life by a cast of some of the world’s best singers, dancers, and
instrumentalists. Think “The Great Gatsby” meets “Sinatra at the Sands” meets “Back! …To The
Future”.
When pianist Scott Bradlee started the time-twisting musical collective from a basement apartment in
Queens, NY, an online, “viral” success story was born —one that quickly led to sold out shows across
North America and Europe in the Summer of 2014.
The touring act received rave reviews from industry publications and world-renowned artists alike. In
the years that followed, “PMJ” built a reputation as the “Saturday Night Live of Singers” by introducing
audiences to dozens of exceptional musical artists —many of whom had been previously overlooked by
the modern record industry — and turning them into bonafide stars.
Ten years and two billion views on their YouTube channel later, a Postmodern Jukebox show has
become something of an annual musical tradition for hundreds of thousands of dedicated fans all over
the world — fans that often show up dressed to the nines in their vintage best, eager to immerse
themselves in the experience.
Bradlee, who creates the musical arrangements and directs the shows says, “That kind of longevity in a
notoriously fickle industry was completely unexpected for us. There’s no secret formula, other than an
obsession for classic sounds and a commitment to showcasing phenomenal talent. We continue to feel
honored and humbled by our audiences’ support for this project, which continues to inspire us and push
us to new heights of artistry. It’s the perfect marriage, and our 10th anniversary tour will be a
celebration.”
