alt-J Australian Tour

Following shows throughout Europe and the United States, British indie rockers alt-J are heading back down under for a slew of dates this December. The band will be showing off their art-electro, math-folk and hymnal-rock sound to fans in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

alt-J have become one of the most successful British bands of the millennium. A decade after forming at Leeds University, they are a post-guitar group for the new-pop generation.

The band is set to release the hotly-anticipated third album, Relaxer, on Friday 2 June (via Liberator Music/Infectious Music/BMG) on CD, heavyweight vinyl and digitally. Prior to that date, '3WW' as well as 'In Cold Blood' and 'Adeline' have been made available to fans.

Relaxer is the third offering from alt-J after their Grammy and Brit Award-nominated 'This Is All Yours' and their 2012 Mercury Prize and an Ivor Novello Award-winning debut 'An Awesome Wave'. The first two albums have sold in excess of two million copies worldwide and their songs have been streamed well over one billion times.

Three years of worldwide touring have forged the band’s reputation as a fierce live act. alt-J have torn up festival stages across the globe, including Australia’s very own Falls Music and Arts Festival, and on their last international tour, alt-J sold out the London’s iconic O2 Arena and New York’s legendary Madison Square Garden.

Los Angeles quartet Warpaint will be joining alt-J at all shows. Warpaint’s studio albums emphasise moody atmospheres, with gauzy keyboards, hypnotic harmonies, and sinister grooves. In concert, they pair this moodiness with bumped-up tempos and powerful beats. Their live performances dazzle, and their shows are met with much delight from fans and critics alike.

And as audiences all over the world know, when alt-J get going, they rock hard. You wouldn't want to miss this musical experience, would you? Grab your tickets now!
