Postmodern Jukebox — the internationally acclaimed music collective famed for their signature time-twisting style, transforming some of our most loved songs into dazzling vintage masterpieces — are to head on a 20-city UK tour for May and June 2026, as part of their globe-spanning The Future Is Vintage world tour.
Renowned for their joyous, high-energy live shows, the multi-talented troupe of singers, dancers and instrumentalists will bring a brand new production to stages across the country — putting a retro spin on everything from ’70s rock classics and ’80s Britpop staples to today’s chart-toppers, movie themes and even video-game soundtracks. Packed with dance-ready numbers and jaw-dropping showstoppers, it’s a show that works just as well for a big night out as it does for the perfect family outing.
Founded in New York by pianist and arranger Scott Bradlee in 2011, Postmodern Jukebox began as a series of videos recorded in a small apartment, transforming contemporary pop songs into vintage jazz, swing, and soul arrangements. What started as a YouTube sensation has since evolved into a global touring phenomenon, with sold-out shows on six continents and over a billion online views.
The rotating cast has featured some of the most remarkable vocalists, musicians and performers working today — artists whose charisma, stagecraft and extraordinary musicality have made Postmodern Jukebox shows unlike anything else on the touring circuit. For more than a decade, fans around the world have flocked to these concerts not just for the music, but for the pure theatrical thrill: a meticulously crafted night of escapism, humour, virtuosity, and irresistible fun.
Speaking about the upcoming tour, Bradlee said:
“In the midst of the AI hype all around us, some folks have gone so far as to proclaim that in the not-so-distant future, all of the music that we listen to will be AI generated… we’ll gladly take the other side of that wager. On the 2026 Postmodern Jukebox UK / Europe / Australia / New Zealand tour, we’re humbly presenting our own unique vision of a spectacular future; one that is built upon the timeless musical genres of the past and the authentically human spirit of creativity that inspired them.”
