Describing the inspiration behind “The Actor,” the band says: “Hollywood, 1982. Another hopeful young movie star arrives in search of The Dream. What follows is a tale of desperation, drugs and death in LA’s most famous hotel. It’s ‘The Actor’.”  

alt-J has previously announced an arena tour of North America, which started, February 25 in Pittsburgh and ending April 17 in Toronto.
