Interview by Paul Salfen
Peter Hook & The Light set off on a massive run of live shows in 2024, taking in full tours of Australia and New Zealand, North America and the UK and Ireland. The live dates will see the band play the Substance albums by Joy Division and New Order in full. Peter Hook first revisited the seminal Joy Division album Unknown Pleasuresback in May 2010 for a commemorative charity concert and has followed it each year by performing subsequent albums from the repertoire of his bands, Joy Division and New Order. Peter Hook & The Light have since moved through each of those albums, culminating in the Factory Records Substance compilations, and recently celebrated over four decades of the continuing influence of Joy Division and Ian Curtis with the “Joy Division: A Celebration” concerts where both of the band’s albums were played in full. In October 2023 the band then played the Substancealbums at the biggest-ever London concert at the 5300-capacity Eventim Apollo. Tickets available here: https://peterhookandthelight.
