Peter Hook: Singer-Songwriter in New York

About Peter Hook

Peter Hook is an English musician best known as the bassist and co-founder of Joy Division and, later, New Order. His playing helped push the bass into the foreground, using high-register lines and a pronounced chorus tone that functions as a melodic lead. In recent years he has toured with Peter Hook & The Light, revisiting this catalog in a concert format built around continuity and structure. In New York City he appears at Brooklyn Paramount, bringing that signature approach into a rock/pop set that favors clarity over spectacle.
