Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox « The Future Is Vintage Tour 2026 »

Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox brings The Future Is Vintage Tour 2026 to The Glasgow Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow on 2 June 2026. Led by pianist and arranger Scott Bradlee, this collective reimagines contemporary pop, R&B and hip-hop hits through the lens of earlier eras, from swing and ragtime to doo-wop, soul and big band. Born on YouTube, the project has grown into a touring ensemble known for its live band and a rotating cast of guest vocalists.

On stage, PMJ treats familiar hooks like standards from another time, reshaping harmonies and grooves to match the style of each period. The singers take turns at the mic, each with a distinct colour — crooner finesse, soulful power, or torch-song intensity — while the band carries the arrangements with crisp, vintage-leaning textures signed by Bradlee.

The Future Is Vintage sets unfold like a revue that jumps decades with ease, linking modern melodies to classic forms. The lineup often changes from date to date, and the song choices follow suit, but the principle stays the same: contemporary chart-toppers rebuilt with care and a taste for retro craft, delivered by musicians who make these time-shifted versions feel natural on stage.
