The first guy on bass is Casey Abrams who was on American Idol the same year as Haley. They performed together on the show and have since done several videos together. Check out their performance of "Can't Help Falling In Love" Casey plays piano. Morgan James, long blond hair, is Julliard School trained for opera but chose this path instead after graduation. Ariana Savalas is Telly Savalas' (TV show Kojak) daughter. You like that NOLA vibe, wait til you see 7 Nation Army total New Orleans Dirge. The dress Haley wears is New Orlean Saints football colors. Knew you would love 4 hands on the bass! As a jazz artist yourself this has to be a ton of fun. Thanks Dave
Bro, the purity of your smile as you're watching this and truly enjoying it is very contagious. I find myself smiling and enjoying because of your smiling and enjoying so keep up the awesome work.
PMJ is an amazing collective of very talented people. The original concept and retro arrangements are the genius work of Scott Bradlee. Please take us along as you explore. In a small way we get to re-experience the fun and amazement of our first times. Thanks!!!
Well you got your first taste of Morgan James (The Blonde) Little trivia, the third girl is the daughter of Telly Savalis, played as the star cop in Kojak. DON'T FORGET DREAM ON
Haley's performance and vocal gymnastics in "Oops, I Did It Again" I promise will literally blow you away. Haley makes it so much better than the original that there is no comparison.
Hey, Dave! I fell in love with PMJ a few years ago and would love to see them in concert. Their revolving featured singers are wonderful and the arrangements are phenomenal. Thanks for diving into this rabbit hole!
Yes,yes,yes, Dave! What did I tell ya! Awesome cover! Seven Nation Army is a New Orleans style dirge. The trombone player is out of this world, also seen him in videos while PMJ was touring.
Ok. Welcome to the world of Morgan James. Morgan is a Juilliard School trained opera singer. She worked on Broadway, even playing the role of the incomparable Teena Marie in Motown. She was also in Godspell and the Addams Family. More importantly is her many soulful covers and originals, many of them done with her husband, the equally talented guitarist, Doug Wamble. You can react to just about any of her stuff and be amazed.
No body plays bass fiddle like Casey Abrams! Love this collaboration!! Listen to Morgan singing Arrow Smith song! Casey & Halley Reinhardt have paired up a lot! Both were on American Idol at the same time! Nice Reaction!!
A cello is about half that size and is played sitting down with the instrument braced against the player's chest. What you have here is an instrument known variously as upright bass, double bass and (my favorite) bull fiddle. Great reaction. More PMJ would definitely be fun.
Now that you've gotten your feet wet with Morgan James, I'd go back to her first PMJ performance of Maps. Or, if you want to continue with Hailey, she and Morgan did a non-pmj cover of Dear Prudence that is brilliant. Of course, Morgan must-see's are Dream On, Barbie Girl, and Take Me To Church all done with PMJ. Don't forget to check out her own channel and career that is phenomenal outside of her pmj collabs.
What I enjoy most about PMJ is that almost all their recordings are playful and feelgood! It is clear that this is one of their main goals, in addition to the incredible craftsmanship of all these great musicians. I wish I could sit you down for a few hours, maybe with a beer or sumtin, and just spam you with some of their best recordings. I just know you wouldnt stop smiling 😊
Oh Dave loved your reaction. Knowing you mentioned jazz roots….there probably not one PMJ cover you would not like. Welcome to the PMJ rabbit hole & all their singers & musicians.
Haley's raspy voice and great singing style are a perfect match for PMJ! You should check her "Creep" and "Seven Nation Army", both with PMJ. 🔥🔥 How can such a powerful voice come out of a small girl like Morgan? She also has some amazing colabs with PMJ. My fav is Aerosmith's "Dream On", it's fantastic!! 😍🔥
Check out the videos of Morgan James with PMJ on "Dream On" and "Maps", and also on "Take Me To Church." Unbelievable voice. Actually I think she's even better on "POSTMODERN JUKEBOX feat. MORGAN JAMES "Maps" NYC 5.12 2015" where she hits some notes live that blow the roof off the place.
You should check out "Comes Love" the old jazz standard, by Hannah Gill, with Scott Bradlee on piano. Scott Bradlee is the mad, musical genius behind Postmodern Jukebox. He does all the arrangements, and, plays piano in all the videos.
My recommendations for a couple of really fun songs... What is Love (yes, the Haddaway song. TOTALLY different) I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (U2, Gospel Soul cover) One more... "Someday" (Strokes Cover, in 'Casablanca style'), might be right up your alley.
Yes, it's a pop song, but it's covered by PMJ and is therefore jazzed up. To be honest, Meghan Trainor made her song a bit jazzy, to begin with. Long live jazz, baby!
Well, it’s a reaction video so I gotta pause somewhere to get my thoughts out haha. You and I can always listen to it uninterrupted on thier main channel later.
Seven Nation Army By Haley is AMAZING as well. She by far my favorite

My first time here & priceless reaction.
Best wishes from Mississippi !

PMJ and the three Sirens really got your groove going Dave... I love it!!!

Dave your smile while they sing this just made the experience twice as beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
"Backup Singers" ROFLMAO‼️
Great reaction- you're like a kid on Christmas morning 😉

I love it that this entire ensemble could perform on a street corner with no electricity and it would sound just as great.
So fun to watch you enjoy this song so much. Big smile, lots of appreciation for singers, band, arrangement, setting etc. PMJ wins another convert.
Morgan James is as good as it could possibly get..insane pipes
Like musical theater in 5 -10 minute bites Fantastic
A cello is about half that size and is played sitting down with the instrument braced against the player's chest. What you have here is an instrument known variously as upright bass, double bass and (my favorite) bull fiddle. Great reaction. More PMJ would definitely be fun.
bull fiddle? never heard that but man i love it! thats a great name
I've also heard it called a Dog House Bass in rockabilly circles and that's the term that stuck with me.
Now that you've gotten your feet wet with Morgan James, I'd go back to her first PMJ performance of Maps. Or, if you want to continue with Hailey, she and Morgan did a non-pmj cover of Dear Prudence that is brilliant.

Ugh, her versions of Maps and Dream On are both amazing.
Morgan's pipes are just phenomenal!
If you have not heard Haley Rienhart singing Creep with PMJ you are depriving yourself of a great performance.
What I enjoy most about PMJ is that almost all their recordings are playful and feelgood! It is clear that this is one of their main goals, in addition to the incredible craftsmanship of all these great musicians. I wish I could sit you down for a few hours, maybe with a beer or sumtin, and just spam you with some of their best recordings. I just know you wouldnt stop smiling 😊
I don't know which was more fun to watch... PMJ or you watching PMJ. LOL Thank you so much for your enthusiastic reactions. So fun.
I love the excitement and happiness you have in your reaction! Super job and I am with you... PMJ is great!
Oh Dave loved your reaction. Knowing you mentioned jazz roots….there probably not one PMJ cover you would not like. Welcome to the PMJ rabbit hole & all their singers & musicians.
Home Free did a cover of this song, you don’t have to imagine it!
I love love love Casey and Haley😭😭😭
You nailed it: it's absolutely New Orleans.
The first two women do a great cover of Dear Prudence by the Beatles. It's just the two of them and a guitar player
I'm reliving my excitement through yours lol, thank you
Haley's raspy voice and great singing style are a perfect match for PMJ! You should check her "Creep" and "Seven Nation Army", both with PMJ. 🔥🔥
How can such a powerful voice come out of a small girl like Morgan? She also has some amazing colabs with PMJ. My fav is Aerosmith's "Dream On", it's fantastic!! 😍🔥
"The almighty trombone."
Word.
Loving your reaction!
If you really want N'awlins vibes, check out Postmodern Jukebox cover of Seven Nation Army haha
Pretty sure its impossible to listen to this cover and not dance in your chair with a huge smile on your face.
Fun reaction! Thanks!
Check out the videos of Morgan James with PMJ on "Dream On" and "Maps", and also on "Take Me To Church." Unbelievable voice. Actually I think she's even better on "POSTMODERN JUKEBOX feat. MORGAN JAMES "Maps" NYC 5.12 2015" where she hits some notes live that blow the roof off the place.

Morgan James. Classic and opera trained at Juilliard
Drummer waving in the back lol
You should try Postmodern jukebox Really don't care. Morgan James is awesome and best tambourine player ever. Great energy.
Dark Swamp Blues?
Justin Johnson playing
"Spanish Moss"
My recommendations for a couple of really fun songs...
What is Love (yes, the Haddaway song. TOTALLY different)
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (U2, Gospel Soul cover)
One more... "Someday" (Strokes Cover, in 'Casablanca style'), might be right up your alley.
Dave, my man please, please check out
2 Cellos (Thunderstruck) it will blow your mind!🤯
pmj - maps (morgan james) the blonde girl
LOL at 6:46 the guy in the background waving!
More Morgan James please. How about Dream On!
Pmj Morgan James Dream On Next Please ;)
You'll get a mega-dose of New Orleans if you react to their version of "Sweet Child O' Mine."
I love your comments
You have to watch l Seven Nation Army, Black hole Sun.
The gal in the red dress is the daughter of Tele Savalas
Hey Dave, I was hoping you would finally get around to doing a reaction to PostModern Jukebox and Haley Reinhart covering "Don't Speak" by no doubt.
Audio cut out at the end.
Check out Morgan James covering maps by maroon 5
It's a BASS , not a Chello .
It's the double entendre of the song title ... All About That Bass (... no treble).
I can't belive i forgot to say I enjoyed your reaction! I'm so sorry l... I looked like such a jerk, lol.
Sorry. I'll do better next time.
It's American Jass with some Swing Bro.
Yes, it's a pop song, but it's covered by PMJ and is therefore jazzed up. To be honest, Meghan Trainor made her song a bit jazzy, to begin with. Long live jazz, baby!
Pausing interrupts the flow of the build up..And that's where some of the impact is and it's lost
Well, it’s a reaction video so I gotta pause somewhere to get my thoughts out haha. You and I can always listen to it uninterrupted on thier main channel later.
amazing artists but aint nonne of the have "that bass" lol i love then though especialy Hailey
Overall I enjoyed the reaction, but dude, calling a bass a cello is like calling a trombone a trumpet.
My bad. I’m pretty sure I said cello or walking bass. I knew it was one or the other. 😅
Please listen to the song man and quit acting like you know so much!
Thanks for watching 🙏🏽
Can you react to SoHyang- Bridge over troubled water!??
