  • Postmodern Jukebox Performing Live at Mesa Arts Center November 27, 2016
    Media Contact: Casey Blake 480-644-6620 [email protected] Postmodern Jukebox Performing Live at Mesa Arts Center November 27, 2016 Mesa, AZ (April 19, 2016) – Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox (PMJ) have announced a 45- date North American headlining tour which includes a one-night-only performance at Mesa Arts Center on Sunday, November 27 at 7:00 p.m. Fans can pre-order tickets Wednesday, April 20 via PMJ’s official site, postmodernjukebox.com. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, April 22 at 10:00 a.m. and will be available at Mesa Arts Center’s Box Office, at mesaartscenter.com and by calling 480-644-6500. The tour follows PMJ’s current 75-date almost completely sold-out international run, which wraps this June. In 2015, the group's sold-out tours of Australia and the United States prompted the Buffalo News to proclaim, “Postmodern Jukebox is literally a postmodern success, extending its reach from the virtual to the real world, touring and performing around the globe for an ever-growing fan base.” Created by Bradlee, the rotating collective of Postmodern Jukebox has spent the past few years amassing more than 450 million YouTube views and 1.9 million subscribers, performed on “Good Morning America,” topped iTunes and Billboard charts and played hundreds of shows to packed-house crowds around the world. As NPR put it, they’ve done this by “taking current Top 40 hits and re-imagining them as coming from older eras of popular music.” In one such remake, Bradlee and Postmodern Jukebox turned Miley Cyrus’ “We Can’t Stop” into a doo-wop ditty that’s garnered over 15.4 million views.

    VIOLENT FEMMES AND THE TASMANIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA World Premiere Monday 22 & Tuesday 23 January Due to popular demand Mona Foma today announced an extra show for the world premiere of the Violent Femmes performing with the TSO. For two nights only, the Violent Femmes will take their acoustic punk-rock and work with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to reimagine it as a full orchestra experience. Conducted by Hamish McKeich they’ll perform a long list of cult classics such as Add It Up, Blister In The Sun, Kiss Off, Gone Daddy Gone, American Song and Gimme The Car at The Federation Concert Hall on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 January. “Most rock bands would blow off an orchestra with the amplifiers, but for these two shows we’re prepared to back off on the volume and actually play almost at the same volume as the orchestra musicians and create a more unified approach, “ said Brian Ritchie. The Violent Femmes were formed in 1981 as an acoustic band playing on the streets of Milwaukee. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Enduring a couple of hiatuses throughout their 36-plus year career, the band — original members Gordon Gano and Brian Ritchie, along with drummer John Sparrow have been performing steadily since reuniting again in 2013. The TSO’s performance with the Violent Femmes represents another innovative collaboration for the orchestra, which in 2017 alone has seen sold out concerts with vocal star Kate Miller-Heidke, a Dark MOFO collaboration with Norwegian metal band Ulver, an original show with comedy trio Tripod and a sold out concert with ARIA award-winning and multi-platinum artist Megan Washington.

    Archives and Special Collections Mansfield Library, University of Montana Missoula MT 59812-9936 Email: [email protected] Telephone: (406) 243-2053 This transcript represents the nearly verbatim record of an unrehearsed interview. Please bear in mind that you are reading the spoken word rather than the written word. Oral History Number: 473-007 Interviewee: (John) Chris Badgley Interviewer: Leif Fredrickson Date of Interview: November 21, 2019 Project: Missoula Music History Oral History Project Leif Fredrickson: This is Leif Fredrickson interviewing Chris Badgley. Did I pronounce your name right? Chris Badgley: Perfect. LF: November 22, 2019, or 21st—one of those two. CB: I think it's the 2ast. LF: Yeah, the 21st century, somewhere in there, and we're in Missoula, Montana. So, let's just start. Can you tell me where you were born and raised? CB: Certainly, I was born in Ohio; however, I don't feel I’ve ever been there because we left after six months. My father was at Johns Hopkins after that where we were until my mother had stroke and we moved back to Missoula when I was six, I believe. They were both born and raised here and so moved back here because they knew where they stood, and Mom needed a lot of help. I moved back to Missoula then and was raised here up until I was 18. Went through the Missoula county public school system, Hellgat High, and graduated half a year early and got out of town in search of music, a scene, excitement—all those things one leaves home for.
