PETER HOOK & THE LIGHT continue their mammoth run of worldwide dates in 2024 by performing at several notable UK festivals this summer followed by an extensive UK and Ireland tour in October and November. The headline dates in the autumn 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 Pleasures back 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 last year
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 last year, the band played the Substance albums at their biggest ever London concert at the 5300 capacity Eventim Apollo.
Peter Hook’s dedication to his back catalogue has seen him move through Unknown Pleasures, Closer, Still, Movement, Power Corruption & Lies, Low Life, Brotherhood, Technique and Republic to arrive at the point. Having toured these albums extensively, the band have now amassed well over 600 concerts.
Among the many highlights since his early repertoire was reintroduced to a legion of new audiences across the world have been appearances at Benicassim, Primavera Sound, Kendal Calling, Victorious, Bestival and Rebellion, alongside extensive touring in Europe, North and South America, China, Japan, Australia and New Zealand to great acclaim from both fans and critics alike.
