Alt-J is a three-piece indie-electronic group formed in Leeds, UK in 2008. They are named after the triangle symbol that appears on a Mac computer after pressing “alt” and “j.”

The folk-infused, layered alternative electronica saw Alt-J carve out a name for themselves in the mainstream music scene after signing a record deal with Infectious Records in 2011. The original four members met at university in the northern UK city, Leeds and spent two years refining their sound and rehearsing before signing the deal.

Alt-J is comprised of vocalist and guitarist Joe Newman, guitarist and bassist Gwil Sainsbury (who later left the band), keyboardist and vocalist Gus Unger-Hamilton and drummer Thom Green. The band’s distinctive sound has seen the members’ efforts compared to Wild Beasts, Hot Chip and even Coldplay. They won the revered Mercury Prize in 2012 and were nominated for three BRIT Awards in the same year.

2012 was the year that their debut album, “An Awesome Wave” was released, gaining them the award nominations and wins. Singles from the album include “Matilda” (named after Natalie Portman’s character in director Luc Besson’s 1994 film, “Léon”) and “Fitzpleasure.” In 2013 Alt-J went on a huge world our to flaunt their debut and cater to their newfound fan base. The busy touring schedule, however, eventually led to bassist Sainsbury’s departure from the band (the tour spanned locations from Australia and Singapore, to Europe and America).

The remaining three members stayed together to work on and release their second album, “This Is All Yours.” Released in the fall of 2014, the album is host to singles “Every Other Freckle,” “Left Hand Free” and “Hunger of the Pine” and reached the number one position on the UK Album Chart on 28 September 2014.

Live reviews

one of my best Concert's! and this was my 98 Concert ;)

Alt-J betraten die Bühne durch Nebelschwaden und eine aufwendige Lichtshow. Dann eröffneten sie ihr Set mit „Intro“, das nicht nur auf dem letzten Album, sondern auch live als perfekter Opener funktioniert. Ursprünglich als „Nod To The Canon“ komponiert, ist es für die Musiker aus Leeds mehr ein Augenzwinkern zum Debütalbum. Niemand aus der Band dachte, dass „An Awesome Wave“ ein solcher Erfolg wird. Wenn man nach den Zuschauern in Berlin geht, weiß man warum dieses Augenzwinkern gerecht ist. Der Opener wurde vom Publikum gefeiert, als wäre es die letzte Zugabe.

Als wäre dies nicht genug, spielten sie kurz danach „Every Other Freckle“ und „Left Hand Free“. Zwei Lieder, die seit letztem Jahr in fast jeder Playlist zu finden sind. Beide Songs sind die wichtigsten Singleauskopplungen des letzten Albums und gehören somit zwangsweise zu den hoffentlich-spielen-sie-die-Lieder des Abends. Dementsprechend energisch wurden sie vom Publikum aufgenommen. Aus fast jeder Ecke hörte man, wie die Texte mitgesungen wurden. Der Sound von alt-J ist nun mal schwer tanzbar und lädt eher zum Schwelgen und Träumen ein. Den Gästen machte dies nichts aus und sie entwickelten kurzerhand einen eigenen Tanzstil, der mit der Musik von alt-J ganz gut funktionierte.

Weitere Highlights des Abends waren „Something Good“, „Leaving Nara“ und „Fitzpleasure“, die live noch gewaltiger daherkommen. Die vier Musiker auf der Bühne verstehen sich fast blind, und das merkte man auch in Berlin. Besonders die Harmonien von „Fitzpleasure“ passten komplett und hüllten die Halle in ein Gewand, aus dem kein Besucher heraus kam. Der Gesang, die Harmonien und die Beats fungierten sehr gut miteinander und machten alle Lieder unvergesslich. Die Massen vor der Bühne sangen bei allen Liedern mit und ließen sich selbst bei den tiefsten Tönen, die die Arena Berlin je hörte, nicht beirren.

Im Gegensatz zu den meisten Konzerten, die alt-J in Deutschland schon gespielt haben, legten sie bei der aktuellen Tour viel Wert auf die Lichtgestaltung. Die komplette Show war von vorne bis hinten überraschenderweise genau durchdacht. Bei manchen Liedern standen die Musiker nur in einer Farbe gehüllt, bei anderen ließen sie die Videowand hinter sich als Licht arbeiten. Die Lichtshow war ein spektakuläres Erlebnis und untypisch für alt-J, die meistens minimalistisch arbeiten.

Als erste Zugabe des Abends kam „Hunger Of The Pine“, die erste Single des letzten Albums. Live wirkt dieses Lied noch besser als auf Platte. Die Samples und das brachiale Surren sind so perfekt miteinander verwoben, dass die Zuschauer sehr schnell von der Live-Qualität überzeugt waren.

Der alt-J-Kosmos funktioniert wie ein perfektes Uhrwerk. Jeder Ton und jeder Tempowechsel scheint zu sitzen. Dies machte nicht nur „Hunger Of The Pine“ zu einem Erlebnis, sondern auch „Breezeblocks“. Es war nicht nur das letzte Lied, sondern auch für Band und Zuschauer ein perfekter Abschluss. Die Debütsingle liegt allen in der Halle im Ohr. Gefühlt jeder kannte den Text und das machte diesen Schlusssong zum besten Moment des ganzen Abends.

In musikalischer Hinsicht zeigten alt-J einmal mehr, dass sie absolute Perfektionisten sind. Die vier Engländer spielen ihre Instrumente nahezu einwandfrei und machen auch so keine Fehler.

Alt-J schafften es mit ihrer Musik am gestrigen Abend, den wundervollen Festival-Sommer noch einmal aufleben zu lassen. Mädels, die auf den breiten Schultern von Typen sitzen, glückliche verschwitzte Gesichter in der Menge und Menschen, die ausgelassen am Rand tanzen – November ist der neue Juli.

The open amphitheater did nothing to stave off the flow of sweat as the venue became a gigantic sauna, but the hot, heavy air was absolutely appropriate for what was happening all around us. Looking west from our seats in the 18th row, the view was straight-up Global Dance Festival, but the sounds coming from the east couldn’t have been further from EDM if it were Mumford & Sons on the stage. I don’t know what I was expecting from alt-J, but as they made their way through An Awesome Wave, I realized that I didn’t really know anything about them at all. Not knowing anything about a band isn’t something I’m accustomed too, so I found myself a little confused and a little disoriented at first, but then I found myself extremely moved and extremely impressed with what I was witnessing. The young band from Leeds had their shit together. There was a reason they sold out Red Rocks in record time. They owned the place.

I think I was expecting alt-J to be a gimmicky electronic band (named after a Mac keyboard shortcut) with a ‘marbles in his mouth’ singer, but they ended up being an extremely polished (in a good way) group of musicians who perform a sort of neo-folk music, with real life instruments, on top of a thick layer of synth. I always hated when artists like Caribou and Four Tet were labeled ‘folktronica’ — not only did I think it was a stupid word, but I didn’t believe it truly explained any of the acts it was attributed to — so it was kind of irritating when that word kept flashing in my mind like a neon sign on the fritz while alt-J performed some of their slower, vocal-driven tracks. I was asked a question before the show — “What kind of band is alt-J?” — I really couldn’t answer that question with any authority (umm, indie?), but after seeing them live, I think alt-J can best be described as British Folktronica. As much as I still hate that word, it’s an apt description of what they do.

Having heard the band's single, Fitzpleasure, as an iTunes free download back in 2012, I had come to like alt-J's debut studio recordings found in their Mercury Prize winning album, An Awesome Wave. The indie-alternative community along with myself took great interest in this band quite quickly after their album release. However, such anticipation and hype for such a band, raises questions about their capabilities in a live setting. Fast forward to the actual concert, there was no disappointment, just plain satisfaction. Clearly, as an aware concert attendee, I had expected some differences in the distinct alt-J sound. These fluctuations, however, were quite minimal. For performing shows on a daily basis for months leading up to the concert I attended, the singer, Joe Newman, and his voice were as strong as or even stronger than it was on their record. With many tracks having many unique, yet very complex sounds, it was awesome to hear these songs in action where these songs were played in a loud setting rather than a quiet recording studio. The amplified sound allowed the fan to experience the hidden sounds that go into the overall sound of the particular song. Like any other debut tour, the band's first album was run through with two other songs (Buffalo and Warm Foothills) in the set.

The band really knows how to get the crowd moving, for it was a unit of triangle hand symbols the entire concert. The intensity brought to the table by the fan and the band made their concert an amazing experience. alt-J is one of the best live performances of the modern era; passing up on them is a mistake.

We first saw alt-J at the Armory in Rochester, NY a couple of years ago and were blown away at how true to form the performance was. Small venue and we were close. In fact, if I were to have a criticism, I expect some diversion and flexibility of creative expression among the band during a live show. alt - J pretty much stays very close to their produced music. This is not necessarily a bad thing.

We made the trip from Rochester to Cleveland to catch them at Jacobs Pavilion last night. What a perfect night. Venue was amazing, weather was outstanding and alt-J was spot on. My original criticism remains, but it really doesn't matter. Gus, Thom, and Joe continue to hone their craft. Sound was epic, they rattled the bleachers, and the light show blew the lid off the dump! The only song I missed was Adeline, but that probably would've been a buzz kill considering the set list.

Mind blower of the night:

Jacobs Pavilion sits on the bank of the Cuyahoga River and the city lights are glitter in the background. During Taro a gigantic tanker ship inched it's way down the river providing a monstrous moving back drop that must have taken 10 minutes to pass by. The thrum of the ship's engines actually blended in with the beat of the song. I'm sure the band was completely unaware of what was going on because they would have stopped playing. It was and would've been a WTF moment.

How do you write a review when you had a really bad view at a concert and couldn't see practically anything happening on the stage? Focus on the sound. If you enjoy alt-J at all, you will not be disappointed with their live show. However their style of music makes for a really interesting show - some songs are really danceable, pouring on the guitars and bass. Others you are kind of left wondering should I just stand or sway to the music? But again, if you know alt-J's music, you'll already know that. The show has a very cool artistic vibe. The lights and sound mixing are so, so good. It was one of the best light shows I've seen (through the throngs of people) at a concert this year. It's almost as if their album cover art came to life, silhouetting and augmenting the band's sound - visually seeing the sound, if you will. I was surprised at just how good the band sounded. Each song sounded as good live as it does on their albums. That alone was worth the price of admission (maybe not the price of the Uber ride back from DC, but definitely of admission). It would have been easy for the bass to overwhelm the rest of the sound, but the mixing/production was so on point that the vocal nuances and intricacies came through crystal clear. Percussion was fantastic, guitar ripping, bass pumping, vocals soaring. It was a great show. Go see them live.

Alt J @ Royal Albert Hall 29/10/2018

Alt-J filled the Royal Albert Hall with their immense atmospheric sounds and powerful emotive melodies. The sound in the building is impressive enough, and it was a great occasion to feel the sometimes clashing but at other times euphoric resonance of their sound in such an incredible space.

There were moments when the choral sounds of their backing tracks bounced of the ceilings and the bass resonated within the space built for the sound of the organ that wrapped everyone in a cocoon of feelings and sound. Imagine those love scenes in your favourite action movie.

The lights, of course, also didn't disappoint and gave some great visuals to add those mesmerising feelings, particularly those on stage while also bringing the audience and surrounds to live.

The occasion lived up to it's billing and venue, Alt-J put in a good innings and rattled through classic after classic with the audience passionately engaging it was as much a stadium filling tour vibe as classic spectacle for a historic building.

So I love alt-j. Their album is fantastic and their new song is incredible. I was able to see them close to front row at Deck the Hall Ball in Seattle. I also saw them at Lollapalooza. They put on a great show, but don't expect a ton of energy. They are more of chill type of stage performance. Which may seem obvious given their music, but I did want to see a bit more energy coming off the stage. All of their patches/synths and sounds were spot on. Their vocals are really great live, so everything with the sound was perfect. They also had some really cool lights. I would see them again but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy tickets to go see them perform a show with only them. They might be better in a small intimate venue but who knows. I am looking forward to their new album and perhaps it will be more lively than the previous one. If you are a big fan of their music it is worth seeming them at least once, or even at a festival or something. Just don't expect to get your face blown off. Maybe go super stoned or something...

Alt-J are a strange band to see live: I've been to concerts of various different artists and genres, but I don't recall being in a concert that felt like such an art experiment, a sort of overall experience more than just a concert. You could argue that it's not the type of gig where you're going to dance, jump, or sweat too much. Nevertheless, after having seen them on stage, they are great musicians and put on a great show! The setlist included a good blend of both the first and second albums, and was well balanced, between instrumental interludes these guys are known for, as well as hit singles (Breezeblocks, Mathilda, Hunger of the Pine, Left Hand Free, ...) and other low-key tracks which deserve to be heard more often. (Am I the only one with a soft spot for ‘Warm Foothills’?)

I was genuinely surprised by the amazing work done with the lights throughout the show, it felt like a real Lights & Sound show that was well prepared and thought out (something most bands don't use well enough generally). A great evening for sure!

"Buonasera, Roma!"

Yesterday was just amazing.

Many songs were performed, equally from the new and from the old albums, and during each of them it was incredible to see so many fans standing, singing, almost screaming, during the hooks, or just feeling the music. I myself KNOW for sure I lost my mind at some point.

I could have never predicted such a warmth towards 'em here in Italy, but you know: this is Alt-J.

Reaching the end, there was the edge: Matilda, Taro, Dissolve Me, Breezeblocks... Everyone's voice must have gone after such themes.

A parenthesis is to be opened even for the light effects: awesome, I wish I could meet the people who studied it. So many colors, such a rhythm between light and music, it was a pleasure to look at the stage.

The event started on time, and ended after two hours, but don't worry: the time spent there is so worth, that you go home knowing you couldn't have got any better, it was just perfect so.

They really made my day.

Having once seen them play during a festival, it was quite overwhelming watching their sole concert on the 21.11.2015.

Needless to say, the band's performance is quite extraordinary, their sound live is precisely concerned with what the crowd hears and manages to portray an accurate performance of the songs we're used to hear in the studio version even without all their album production.

Their light show was fantastically spectacular, noticeable for their elaborate and adequate visual portrayal of each individual song, that really brought out the emotion in them.

The setlist was also really well put. Before attending the concert I had some previous knowledge of which songs they were going to play and got absolutely amazed by their selection.

Even though some mistakes were made by the performers, if anyone reading this is still in doubt whether they should go to an Alt-J concert or not, I can only recommend:

It's more than worth it :)

alt-J celebrates decennial anniversary of ‘An Awesome Wave’ with 2023 tour

An eager crowd grew outside of the front door to Nashville’s Marathon Music Works on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Fans began to arrive to claim their spots in line hours before the venue doors opened.

The concertgoers huddled together and eagerly murmured their excitement for the show.

It has been an entire decade since the UK band alt-J released their debut album, An Awesome Wave , and almost an entire year for the band on the road touring for the celebration. They had been off the map for most of 2020 and 2021, but after releasing their fourth studio album, The Dream, in February of 2022 the band has been glued to the road playing shows for both the new album and the decennial anniversary of AAW .

Personally, this album means a lot to me. It has held the spot of #1 album in my life for many years now. Something about the somber guitar lines and the way the songs sound so cheerful but are so often full of very dark themes, hidden behind the whimsical gait of lead singer Joe Newman’s instantly recognizable voice. The album rises and falls, building in crescendo to a point where the songs become almost manic, and then falling back down to the contemplative murmur where they began. The diversity and breadth of emotion that are traversed over the course of the album can sometimes feel like an emotional roller coaster, and that emotion is the reason the record has come to be considered such a masterpiece, and no doubt is the reason for alt-J’s early success. However, the band from Leeds could not be kept to ruminate on the successes of their past for too long. After playing AAW from start to finish, the band drove straight forward into the rest of their setlist comprised of other songs from their three follow up albums. Radio hits like “In Cold Blood” intermingled with newer, more somber tunes like “Chicago” reminded the audience that alt-J is by no means a one-trick-pony. The band remains perfectly capable of recording an album that can bring your thoughts to some of the most introspective and oftentimes sad places a human mind can go, luckily however, they are also capable of playing a show so mind-blowing that it makes you forget all of that stuff even exists until the lights come back on and you shuffle back to the real world waiting for you in the street in front of the venue.

“It’s no secret that we love and are influenced by hip-hop, and it’s always been a dream of ours to work with hip-hop artists in reimagining our music,” the band explained. “With REDUXER that dream has come true. We couldn’t be happier with the results. This album is truly global, featuring rappers and producers from all over the world. After a very long time in the making, we are stoked to share it with you all.”

Alt-J Announces 10th Anniversary ‘An Awesome Wave’ Tour

• No Comments

Today  alt-J  announces a tour celebrating the 10 th  anniversary of their Mercury Prize-winning debut album,  An Awesome Wave . Starting in March of 2023, each show on the tour will feature a full performance of the album for the first time in the US. Earlier this year, the band celebrated the album’s anniversary with a worldwide digital concert event and exclusive new podcast series. On the latest addition to that celebration, the band says:
