Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox

Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox returns with The Future Is Vintage and makes a stop at Carré des Docks Le Havre Normandie in Le Havre on April 29, 2026. Conceived by American pianist and arranger Scott Bradlee, the collective transforms hits from yesterday and today into versions shaped in retro textures: 1920s swing, club jazz, doo‑wop, soul, or rockabilly. The band, its singers and its dancers rework everything from ’70s rock to ’80s britpop, current chart hits and even a few film and video game themes.

On stage, the arrangements are performed live, with a very organic energy and an attention to detail that recalls the great standards. PMJ likes to change vocalists, tonal colors and repertoires from date to date, while keeping a common thread: having the present converse with timeless genres. The aim is not nostalgia but reinvention, brought to life by flesh‑and‑blood musicians. Dress is casual, but if you have a vintage piece tucked away, this is a perfect occasion to wear it.
