Postmodern Jukebox

Fairbanks Concert Association presents Postmodern Jukebox, a rotating group of musicians producing covers of pop songs in the styles of jazz, ragtime, and swing. ?The work of Scott Bradlee & Postmodern Jukebox has been viewed on the ensemble?s YouTube channel well over a hundred million times. Most of those doing the viewing, however, are not fully aware of the method to Bradlee?s madness. On the surface, the method is video?clips of full-band performances (that?s Bradlee on piano) shot in the bandleader?s living room with a single stationary camera. The madness: pop hits of the present performed à la pop hits of the past. Miley Cyrus? ?We Can?t Stop? assayed as a doo- wop number; Macklemore and Ryan Lewis? ?Thrift Shop? tricked out in flapper jazz; Sam Smith?s ?Stay With Me? rendered a 1940s big-band standard.
