Cece Rogers and Julie Mcknight deepen the connection to US house tradition, and Graeme Park and Wain supply DJ firepower. Acoustic singer-songwriter Mike Pickering introduces a contrasting live set, with Peter Hook adding a rock-leaning perspective. Together they frame Hacienda Classical’s orchestral reworking of club history in an open-air setting.
