Peter Hook to close Vintage at Goodwood

performing 'Unknown Pleasures' in its entirety

Unknown Pleasures has served as such an inspiration to so many people, so it's fitting that we're closing the 'Inspired By' stage on the final night. I'm hoping it will be a tremendous finale to the event."

"Working with the orchestra and choir will hopefully give the concert an ethereal and haunting quality. I first performed with an orchestra earlier this year at Versus Cancer, the Royal Philharmonic and I'm looking forward to repeating the experience at Vintage. Rowetta's voice especially lends itself to being backed by an orchestra."

He added, "Also what is nice is that so many people I've worked with previously are involved in contributing to the festival in one way or another. Pete Saville's doing something, Lilly Allen's there so presumably her dad will be knocking about, a lot of the DJ's I've worked with at The Hacienda are involved- Greg Wilson, Graeme Park, Gerald, Andy Weatherall - and as a blast from the past Buzzcocks are playing so there'll be a lot of old friends to run into."

Festival organiser Wayne Hemingway said, "For Peter to bring an orchestral element to such a revered album is a great honour for us, it will make for an amazing occasion and a fitting close to our first festival. I both encourage and predict a very moving sing along to 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' at its climax."

Hook's accompanying orchestra will led by renowned musician Sid Gauld. He will also be joined for the special performance by friends including the Happy Monday's former backing singer Rowetta Satchell who will contribute to tracks 'Atmosphere,' 'Insight' and 'New Dawn Fades'. Hook's son Jack Bates will play bass at the concert joined by rhythm guitarist Nat Wason, Andy Poole on keyboards. and Monaco's Paul Kehoe on drums.

On the day of the concert, Hooky will also be doing a signing session at Vintage and showcasing the special editions of his Hacienda book, 'How Not To Run A Club' for the first time, which are being be published in October.
