Come on, who wouldn't be excited? These are the brilliant people responsible for making current music bearable again! ;)
Led by the ever-smiley Scott Bradlee, the band of super-musicians has come a long way since their viral cover of Ellie Goulding's 'Burn' flooded everyone's news feed two years ago and introduced us to a wonderful new world of modern-turned-vintage musical interpretations.
Scott's formula is so simple yet SO GOOD: Take a modern song, give it a vintage twist (with a vast pick of genres from jazz to swing to doo wop!), and present it with some of the most talented singers and musicians on the planet.
Yep, that's Swedish maestro Gunhild Carling taking it away on bagpipes (right after playing the recorder, trumpet, and trombone) before continuing to deliver spot-on vocals for Rick Astley's 'Never Gonna Give You Up'. A-MAH-ZING!

Just close your eyes and imagine Channing Tatum pulling off some smooth moves to this vintage version of Ginuwine's 'Pony'. How would that go?
It goes without saying that their music is better enjoyed live. When people use adjectives like 'energetic', 'seductive' and 'hilarious' all at once to describe their shows, you know you're in for a helluva time!
Looks like 24 September is going to be one glorious night of good music, good people, good times! We know you're not gonna miss it for the world so click here and get your tickets.
