Alt-J performs at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Oct. 29, 2018.
Idiosyncratic rockers Alt-J announced their return to the stage on Wednesday.
The British group will embark on a North American tour – predominantly of arenas, but with a smattering of shed and theater plays – in February 2022. The trek begins at Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, Penn., on Feb. 25, 2022, and concludes at Toronto’s Coca-Cola Coliseum on April 17, 2022.
Alt-J’s stops along the way include Atlanta’s State Farm Arena (March 2), San Francisco’s Bill Graham Civic Auditorium (April 1) and New York City’s Madison Square Garden (April 11).
The tour marks Alt-J’s first shows since July 2019, when the band played four gigs – the extent of its 2019 touring – in Canada. Alt-J toured North America, Europe and Asia in 2018.
Alt-J’s tour will support the release of its just-announced fourth album, The Dream, on February 11, 2022, the band’s first album since 2017’s Relaxer.
Portugal. The Man will support all dates, with additional support provided by Sir Chloe and Cherry Glazerr on the tour’s first and second halves, respectively.
Alt-J ranked No. 139 on Pollstar‘s year-end North American touring chart in 2015, when it notched the three most lucrative North American box office reports of its career: a sold-out two-night April 2015 stand at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, Calif., that sold 17,009 tickets and grossed $722,923; a sold-out March 2015 show at Madison Square Garden that moved 12,375 tickets and grossed $606,323; and a headlining turn at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl that sold 9,471 tickets and grossed $510,772.
Alt-J has played several other venues on its 2022 itinerary, including Nashville Municipal Auditorium, where the band sold 2,988 tickets and grossed $128,220 on Nov. 6, 2017, and Seattle’s WAMU Theater, where it sold 5,941 tickets and grossed $287,483.
