It almost sounds like a gimmick. Public Service Broadcasting, an instrumental rock band with “vocals” pulled from samples of old (mostly British) public broadcast recordings from the post-war period. What is this, Jive Bunny and the Mastermixers 2.0?
There are few venues better suited to Public Service Broadcasting’s mix of nostalgia, genre-blending art rock, and cinematic spectacle than the Barbican Centre. The brutalist architecture of the Barbican, a bold experiment in form and function, mirrors the band’s own fascination with high-concept human endeavour.
