Tickets are now on sale for the Postmodern Jukebox’s summer tour, which includes a visit to Basingstoke. 

The internationally acclaimed music collective, famed for their signature time-twisting style, will once again be transforming some much-loved songs into dazzling vintage masterpieces with 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 are bringing 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 more than 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.”

Those attending are encouraged to dress in their vintage best and step into the immersive world of Postmodern Jukebox for a night of musical time travel — a feel-good celebration that honours the past, energises the present, and champions a brilliantly human future for music.

When are Postmodern Jukebox coming to Basingstoke and how can I get tickets? 

The Postmodern Jukebox tour launches on 12 May with The London Palladium, and then visits The Anvil in Basingstoke on 13 May. They will also visit Oxford’s New Theatre on 20 May. 

The Basingstoke performance takes place at The Anvil, Churchill Way, Basingstoke RG21 7QR. For booking information and venue details, fans can visit AEGPresents.co.uk
