Public Service Broadcasting is a British rock band formed in London by J. Willgoose, Esq., in 2009. They consist of four members known mainly by their stage names: Willgoose Esq. (guitar, banjo, strings, samples and electronics), Wrigglesworth (drums, piano and electronics), J F Abraham (flugelhorn, bass guitar, drums and vibraslap) and Mr B (visuals and set design for live performances).
Initially a solo project consisting of J. Willgoose Esq., he released EP One in 2009. Shortly after Wrigglesworth joined on drums, the band adopted a conceptual approach, using archival footage from old films and documentaries. They released a second EP "The War Room" and their first studio album, "Inform-Educate-Entertain" (2013). They subsequently released "The Race for Space" (2015), which became the 5th best-selling vinyl of the year in the UK and gave the band increased exposure. J F Abraham joined the band officially in 2016, having previously worked as a session musician. The band has since released three albums: "Every Valley" (2017), "Bright Magic" (2021) and "The Last Flight" (2024), all charting within the top 10 in the UK.
The band has toured internationally and in 2015 was announced as a nominee in the Vanguard breakthrough category of the fourth annual Progressive Music Awards, staged by Prog magazine,[5] which they won.
