Alt-J joins host Stephen Kallao

After almost a decade together, touring and releasing three immensely successful albums, Alt-J took a much-needed sabbatical in 2019. That break, along with building their own studio, turned out to be the spark for the English indie rock band’s most adventurous album yet. It’s called, The Dream. We’ll hear Alt-J’s live performance from World Cafe Live in Philadelphia – Plus, the band shares all about the making of the record, and we’ll look back on their breakout debut album, An Awesome Wave, which turns ten this year.
