alt-J are coming to town — please try to look busy. Because if we make eye contact, there will be hell to pay, as the celebrated Leeds art-rock band crash back onto our shores armed with new music and word of a 2022 North American tour with Portugal. The Man and special guests Sir Chloe and Cherry Glazerr.
This week alt-J got our emotions all stirred up with a new slinky new track titled “U&ME”, and it serves as the first taste off the group’s forth studio album, The Dream, set for February 11 release Canvasback / Infectious Music. It’s alt-J’s new music since their acclaimed 2017 album RELAXER.
The ’22 arena tour kicks off February 25 in Pittsburgh and wraps April 17 in Toronto, with an April 14 swing at Boston’s Agganis Arena towards the end of the run. Tickets to all shows go on sale October 1. Check out all the dates below, get the latest info here, and take “U&ME” for a twirl via Spotify.
