Control, 24HourPartyPeople, and the play New Dawn Fades, seen them all - all remarkable. Now step inside; SHADOWPLAY - The Definitive (now Official) Joy Division Tribute. 

The band presents an eerily accurate re-enactment of the legendary, pioneering post-punk quartet.



AUDIENCE REACTIONS:-
"like time travel"

“Feeling a bit lost for words . Shadowplay... probably the best band I've ever seen and so close to actually being the real thing. The raw energy the passion the subtleties the aggression it was all there. Great to see a pretty much sellout crowd !"

"Lads you were off the scale last night, I had the pleasure of seeing Joy Division, and was like seeing them again"

" ....are you good, it was quite unsettling,, I was in heaven. Absolutely breathtaking. Can't wait to see you again." 

“absolutely storming. Best gig I’ve ever witnessed at my venue honestly” 

“Truly magical performance by Shadowplay. When Peter Hook choses your singer to be the singer of his own band (Joy Division Orchestrated) ! You know its gonna be special. It's dark and it's mesmerising and it will transport you to another time. The performance left jaws on the floor and some fella in tears because he thought it was the real band.”
