Alt-J (∆) are from Leeds consisting of Gwil, Joe Newman [guitar/vocals], Gus Unger-Hamilton [keyboards] and Thom Green [drums]. Their name is taken from the computer symbol for “change” and the band, who started out as Daljit Dhaliwal and changed to Films, then changing their name to Alt-J (to stop any band mix-up’s).

Alt J-‘s music is a combination of pop, vocals, synths, hip-hop elements and folk – all thrown together which has given them a unique sound and a loyal following.  Get your tickets for Alt-J on GET ME IN! Ticketmaster’s ticket market.
