Peter Hook And The Light: a band serving a post-punk legacy Peter Hook And The Light was founded in May 2010 by Peter Hook, a founding member of Joy Division and then New Order, two bands that profoundly shaped the post-punk and new wave scene of the 1980s. The band quickly developed an intense international touring schedule, performing in Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand. The band is distinguished by a characteristic concert format: performing cult albums in their entirety, such as Unknown Pleasures, Closer and Get Ready, followed by a second “best of” set bringing together the signature songs of both bands. In June 2026, the band released Get Ready (Live At Victoria Warehouse Manchester), a 31-track live album recorded in April 2025. How to get to the Espace Julien in Marseille?
