Episode Details

New Order is undergoing a major lineup shakeup as drummer Stephen Morris and keyboardist Gillian Gilbert step back from touring due to personal health reasons — a surprising move for fans, especially as the band prepares for their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction. Both have been core members since the 2011 reunion, with Morris originally from Joy Division and Gilbert instrumental in shaping New Order’s electronic sound. Peter Hook, who’s had a rocky past with Sumner, joked that Bernard Sumner may now be the sole touring member — even with a Chile gig booked for November. The band hasn’t named replacements, and Gilbert previously took a break in the early 2000s to care for her daughter. Meanwhile, Morris and Gilbert continue to collaborate under their side project, The Other Two.
