There are some bands that you just keep going back to time and time again and, for me, it’s always these guys:

The brainchild of a Mr Scott Bradlee, Postmodern Jukebox was formed in 2011 and they’ve been producing re-worked versions of pop tunes ever since. Bradlee arranges all the tunes himself and his band is a rotating collective (i.e. whoever is around when he needs to record or perform) with an exciting roster of guest stars. They have an infectious energy which complements their preferred lively jazz styles to a tee. Critics may argue that they are making a living off the back of someone else’s music, but I’d say that anyone who can make Justin Bieber sound that awesome is the living embodiment of true genius. Take my money!
If there’s a tune you’d like to play in a different style, ask me in this week’s lesson! Have a think; it could be a jazz version of a Twenty-One Pilots song, an Irish folk version of a Little Mix tune, or even Lady Gaga in the style of Bach. The crazier the better!
