Since Bradlee created PMJ in 2009, the project has amassed more than 1.1 billionYouTube views and 3.7 million subscribers, chalked up almost 2 million likes on Facebook, topped iTunes and Billboard charts, and played thousands of shows to sold-out houses around the world. Each time around, PMJ looks forward to bringing their unique spin on modern pop hits and retro pop stylings.

Despite finding such success for the project on the road, Bradlee continues to create and record new arrangements, released every week on YouTube, for PMJ’s legion of fans. The multi-talented collective has interpreted hits by Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, The White Stripes, Lorde, Outkast, Radiohead, Maroon 5 and many more. In 2016, PMJ collected 18 favorites from among their hundreds of songs to compile The Essentials for Concord Records. Near the end of 2018, PMJ followed up with a sequel entitled The Essentials II, which includes guest appearances from Morgan James, Haley Reinhart, Casey Abrams, and Puddles Pity Party, among others.

This album marks the start of Postmodern Jukebox 2.0, which will showcase the Welcome to the Twenties 2.0 Tour, which Bradlee hopes will spark a “return to the style and craftsmanship that typified the music of past generations.” The Welcome to the Twenties 2.0 Tour kick off this year, with initiation performance parties in nearly 250 cities worldwide.

Check out the newest single PMJ has released, “Beautiful”, a wonderful take on one of Christina Aguilera’s most well-known songs.

“I take pride in putting together the right powers and personalities to create a unique and amazing experience for our fans,” Bradlee says. “We want them to escape reality and join us for the most sensational 1920s party this side of The Great Gatsby. We want them to experience what it was like to be at the New Years' Eve show that Sinatra would have hosted in the 1940's. We want them to feel the excitement of hearing the greats of Motown live and up close. Our goal is to give our audiences their favorite show again and again and still have it feel like the very first time."
