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

Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox brings The Future Is Vintage Tour 2026 to Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre, Bournemouth, on 14 May 2026. Pianist and arranger Scott Bradlee leads a rotating cast of singers and musicians who reimagine modern hits through vintage lenses: jazz swing, ragtime, doo-wop, soul and big band. Chart staples get recast as crooner standards or speakeasy stompers, with tight horn lines, brushed drums, upright bass and piano framing voices shaped for old-school nuance.

Born online and honed on stage, PMJ treats pop, hip-hop and R&B like a flexible songbook, trading synthetic gloss for acoustic color and period grooves. Each date features a handpicked lineup, so the set can glide from torch ballads to jumpy shuffles and back again, anchored by Bradlee’s arrangements and a rhythm section that keeps it close and lively. The aim is simple: a live show that bends time without nostalgia overload, letting strong melodies and agile vocals do the talking on 14 May in Bournemouth.
