Manchester, United Kingdom (2007 – present)

Bad Lieutenant is an alternative rock group which formed in 2007 in Manchester, UK.

It is the project of New Order’s Bernard Sumner and Phil Cunningham following the departure of Peter Hook from New Order in the Spring of 2007. Jake Evans of Rambo and Leroy is also a member. Other collaborators are New Order’s Stephen Morris, drummer Jack Mitchell from Haven and bassist Alex James from Blur.

In March 2009, Sumner appeared on the Sky Arts series, Songbook with Cunningham and Evans to discuss his songwriting and also to perform 4 acoustic songs from his career. These were

Love Will Tear Us Apart, Bizarre Love Triangle,

Getting Away With It and a premiere of a Bad Lieutenant song called

Sink Or Swim.

In early July 2009, a press release was released which read…

“Bad Lieutenant formed in 2007 with New Order’s Bernard Sumner (guitar and vocals) alongside Phil Cunningham (guitar) and Jake Evans (guitar and vocals). We can now confirm that they have completed their long awaited debut LP Never Cry Another Tear which is set for worldwide release on 5th October 2009 on Triple Echo Records. The album features sounds that have helped make New Order such a treasured, innovative force over the past three decades, but also featured is a brand new voice from exotic Macclesfield, Jake Evans.

So, am I the only one who gets a serious Beautiful Day meets that song from School of Rock on Dynamo? The harmonics alone...
