Led by Vini Reilly, and one of the most eclectic bands to emerge from Manchester s punk scene, The Durutti Column is both contemporary and legendary. As the first band to be signed to Tony Wilson s seminal Factory Records, Reilly went on to work with the likes of New Order s Peter Hook and played and co-wrote on Morrissey s first solo LP Viva Hate. With their unique style of acoustic and electric guitar textures, The Durutti Column has released a prolific twenty-seven albums. Their huge impact on the British music scene was recently immortalised in the film 24 Hour Party People.
