Northcote Theatre

Public Service Broadcasting is a British rock band formed in London in 2010 by J. Willgoose, Esq. The band consists of four members known by stage names: Willgoose Esq. (guitar, banjo, strings, samples, and electronics), Wrigglesworth (drums, piano, and electronics), JFAbraham (flugelhorn, bass guitar, drums, and vibraslap), and Mr B (visuals and set design for live performances). Originally a solo project of Willgoose Esq., who released the EP 'EP One' in 2009, the project expanded to include Wrigglesworth and adopted a conceptual approach involving archival footage from films and documentaries. The band released the EPs 'The War Room' and their debut studio album, 'Inform-Educate-Entertain,' in 2013. Their second album, 'The Race for Space,' followed in 2015. JFAbraham joined the band officially in 2016 after working as a session musician. Since then, Public Service Broadcasting has released three additional albums: 'Every Valley' (2017), 'Bright Magic' (2021), and 'The Last Flight' (2024). They have toured internationally and received recognition as a nominee in the Vanguard breakthrough category at the fourth annual Progressive Music Awards in 2015, which they won.
