About this Event
Section 25 mark the release of their final ever album with a live show at Walthamstow Trades Hall.
Section 25 originally formed in Blackpool, England in November 1977. Initially they were a duo of brothers Larry and Vincent Cassidy.
After several re-incarnations from 2020 the band are now a duo again - just like they started! Consisting of founding member Vincent Cassidy and long time collaborator Steven Stringer. Section 25 create a fantastic live show. The band released 3 albums on Tony Wilson's iconic Factory Records. Mentored by Joy Division and New Order they have also been produced by Ian Curtis, Bernard Summer and Martin Hannett. Extensively sampled by the likes of The Shamen, Orbital and Kanye West, the band have an impressive post-punk pedigree.
S25 have performed all over the world for close on 50 years. Live they explore the band's rich Factory Records back catalogue... from a Northern Industrial/Heavy Dance viewpoint.
With some very special guests TBA.
Tony Wilson: "Those clever bastards from Blackpool"
Jon Savage: "Section 25 have evolved from obdurate nihilists into post-punk pioneers."
