The Durutti Column

The Durutti Column is a long-running project led by English guitarist Vini Reilly, formed in 1978 in Manchester and associated with Factory Records and the post-punk scene. The music is noted for delicate, atmospheric guitar work, sparse arrangements, and an emphasis on melody and space, drawing on folk, jazz, ambient, and classical influences and mixing instrumental pieces with occasional vocals. Reilly's clean, reverb-tinged guitar tone and minimalist approach are central to the project's sound.
