As remarkable as it seems, it’s almost four years since alt-j shuffled into the Clash office for a Next Wave shoot (or Ones To Watch, as it was previously known).
In that time the group have enjoyed a remarkable rise. Two acclaimed albums, a Mercury win and success in the United States have combined to push alt-j to undreamt of levels.
On Saturday night (January 24th) the band played a sensational sold out show at London’s O2 Arena. The biggest show of alt-j’s career, Clash sent photographer Danny Payne along to record the action.
