The Maccabees Tour Dates

• 11th Aug 2009

The Maccabees second, Markus Dravs (Bjork/Coldplay/Arcade Fire) produced, album ‘Wall Of Arms’ was released in May this year to widespread critical acclaim: The Sunday Times called it “perfect, passionate and sophisticated pop” and NME said it was “Brilliant…effortless and unstudied”.

They’ve recently been keeping things innovative by releasing single ‘Can You Give It’ last month with a B-Side version of the track recorded by the Dodworth Colliery Band and in keeping with this celebration of great English tradition, the brilliant accompanying video was filmed at this year’s annual Cheese Rolling race at Cooper’s Hill in Gloucestershire.

The Maccabees will be touring the UK starting in Bristol on 30th September and finishing up in Leeds on 10th October.
