The Maccabees Interview

• 14th Jul 2010

We asked Felix White from The Maccabees five quick-fire questions as he prepares to play the Obelisk Arena at Latitude Festival.

1.When you think of Latitude what 5 words spring to mind?
I've. heard. it's. pretty. good.

2. If you could only see one performance at this year's festival what would it be?
Very difficult question because The National, Richard Hawley, Wild Beasts, Grizzly Bear and Laura Marling are among our favourites anywhere. I'll say the National because we haven't seen them play the new album yet. It genuinely is a very good line-up.

3. What 5 items will you be bringing to Latitude?
5 amps. One of which will hopefully work.

4. Do you have anything special planed for your performance at Latitude?
The plan is to not let ourselves down!

5. Latitude is 5 years old, how did you celebrate your fifth birthday?
I don't remember but I imagine Latitude's fifth will be more eventful.
