Peter Hook has been in not just one, but two of the world’s most influential acts. First finding fame as a member of iconic Manchester band Joy Division, Hooky and the remaining band members formed New Order after the passing of frontman Ian Curtis.
Hook would eventually depart New Order in 2007 due to ongoing internal conflict with the band. He formed Peter Hook & The Light in 2010 as a way for him to perform all the songs he had ever been a part of throughout his career.
Since then he’s toured the globe regularly performing Joy Division and New Order albums and songs for the masses.
