DESCRIPTION:An ever-growing\, rotating collection of talent\, Scott Bradlee
 's Postmodern Jukebox has been viewed on the ensemble's YouTube channel wel
 l over two hundred and fifty million times. Most of those doing the viewing
 \, however\, are not fully aware of the method to Bradlee's madness.\n\nOn 
 the surface\, the method is video-clips of full-band performances shot in t
 he bandleader's living room with a single stationary camera. The madness: p
 op hits of the present performed à la pop hits of the past. Miley Cyrus' "W
 e Can't Stop" assayed as a doo-wop number\; Macklemore and Ryan Lewis' "Thr
 ift Shop" tricked out in flapper jazz\; Sam Smith's "Stay With Me" rendered
  a 1940s big-band standard.\n\nIn fact\, Bradlee's method runs deeper. He's
  educating his audience about 20th-century song styles\; he's commenting on
  the elasticity of the pop form\; he's confounding cultural context\; he's 
 uniting generations\; he's breaking the rules. He's manifesting postmoderni
 st ideas in his approach to production\, business and music. But as far as 
 the fans are concerned\, it's just fun (and sometimes funny). Of his unique
  process\, Bradlee himself says\, "I reimagine a song in another style beca
 use I want to hear it that way."\n\nClearly\, so does everyone else\, as ev
 idenced by the fact that PMJ have sold out more than a hundred shows in mor
 e than thirty countries worldwide and dominated Billboard's Jazz Albums cha
 rt\, where six of their albums concurrently charted at the Top 10.\n\nAddin
 g fire to their success are their impressive social media statistics and fe
 atures in the media. Having amassed more than 1.35 million subscribers and 
 over 276 million views on YouTube\, PMJ are a force to be reckoned with. Th
 ey have been featured in highly-regarded publications such as Billboard\, T
 he Huffington Post\, the Los Angeles Times and NPR Music\, all of whom sang
  praises of their musical talents.
