CONFIDENTIAL PROMOTION

alt-J have announced a UK arena tour for the Autumn to promote their number one album This Is All Yours.

Following a sold out O2 Arena show and rapturously-received festival headline slots, tickets are likely to go quickly.

Their biggest Manchester show to date

Although alt-J have played more than 150 shows since the release of This Is All Yours this is their first full UK tour.

It looks set to be a real treat - alongside numerous international tours, they played their first UK festival headline performance at Latitude in July where they were rapturously-received, and have graced the top of the bill at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend, Glastonbury Festival, T in the Park and Reading and Leeds Festivals.

This Is All Yours debuted at number one in the official UK album charts and number four on the US Billboard 200 upon release last September, and has sold in excess of half a million copies, going Gold in the UK, and racking up more than 214 million streams on Spotify. The album contains the singles Every Other Freckle, Left Hand Free and Hunger Of The Pine, and is available to stream and buy in CD, digital and double-vinyl colour shuffle editions.
