Los Angeles is in for a special treat.. New Order will take center stage at the YouTube Theater at Hollywood Park in Los Angeles on November 15th, with the Blossoms joining them for an unforgettable night of music. This show is just a taste of what’s to come, leading up to their headlining gig at the highly anticipated Darker Waves Festival on November 18th, following a series of captivating European shows.
Last spring, New Order left North American audiences in awe with a series of sold out performances, including a standout appearance at the Moody Theatre at SXSW in Austin, Texas, where they helped launch the Manchester-based Beyond The Music festival.
But that’s not all; brace yourselves for an exciting vinyl reissue of their iconic album, “Substance 1987.” Emerging from the ashes of the legendary Joy Division, New Order overcame tragedy to become one of the most influential and celebrated bands in music history.
Their journey began after the tragic loss of Ian Curtis, as Bernard Sumner (keyboardist and guitarist), Peter Hook (bassist), and Stephen Morris (drummer) regrouped in the same year as New Order. With the addition of Gillian Gilbert (keyboardist and guitarist) and Sumner taking on vocal duties, they embarked on a new musical direction tapping in on the new wave….wave
Their debut album, “Movement” (1981), was initially overshadowed by their Joy Division roots, the band’s fusion of post-punk with the influences of New York’s vibrant club scene gave birth to the groundbreaking “Power, Corruption & Lies” (1983). It was during this period that they unleashed “Blue Monday,” a chart-topping 12-inch single that would go on to become the best-selling of its kind, selling over 3 million copies worldwide in 1983.
New Order continued their success with subsequent albums like “Low-Life” (1985), “Brotherhood” (1986), “Substance” (1987), and “Technique” (1989). Despite brief hiatuses and lineup changes, they continued their musical journey with albums like “Republic” (1993), “Get Ready” (2001), and “Waiting for the Sirens’ Call” (2005) before Peter Hook’s departure in 2007.
The band welcomed Phil Cunningham in 2001 and Tom Chapman as their bass player in 2011, ensuring that their creative fire continued to burn brightly.
In 2015, New Order returned with their critically acclaimed tenth studio album, “Music Complete,” featuring guest vocals from luminaries like Iggy Pop, Brandon Flowers, and Elly Jackson of La Roux.
With their remarkable legacy firmly in place, New Order refuses to rest on their laurels, thrilling fans around the world with their awe-inspiring live performances. From headlining Manchester’s Heaton Park to dominating London’s O2 in 2021, and embarking on a sensational US arena tour with Pet Shop Boys in Autumn 2022, New Order’s journey is one that music enthusiasts and lovers of 80’s music can’t afford to miss.
