Alt-J & Portugal. The Man with Windser @ Credit Union 1 Arena - Chicago
The first time I saw Alt-J was in 2013 - I received an email asking if I was available to work that night selling merch for their show. Fast-forward nearly ten years later, I still enjoy every time I’ve been able to see them - be it in a 400 capacity venue, DJing after their Lollapalooza after show, a festival, and now, the Credit Union 1 Arena at UIC in Chicago. It’s wild to be able to stay on an adventure with a band for so long and watch them do every thing on their own terms. It’s served them well, and I truly cannot wait for each new chapter Alt-J creates for themselves.
They were in Chicago co-headlining with Portugal. The Man (coincidentally, the first time I saw them I was also doing merch for them at a Lollapalooza after show) and opener Windser (who I urge you to check out - what a great human with great music as well).
Here are a lot of photos from that night. From Alt-J’s impressively massive projections and production to PTM’s ode to Bill & Ted, we hope you enjoy!
