PETER HOOK (Joy Division/New Order)

what

Former Joy Division bass player Peter Hook is set to perform ‘Unknown Pleasures’ at The 1234 Festival.

Released in 1979, ‘Unknown Pleasures’ has had an enormous effect on British rock music. Its bass-led sense of dread and intense production shifted the way rock was made, breaking new ground in the process.

Turning thirty last year, bass player Peter Hook re-visited the album in a series of shows. Dedicated to late frontman Ian Curtis the Manchester dates were an emotional occasion, with the bass player being joined by a host of guest stars.

Set to be a one off, Peter Hook is now set to take the ‘Unknown Pleasures’ show to London for the 1234 Festival.
