The Maccabees


Brighton based indie band The Maccabees first formed in 2004. They picked their name by leafing through a copy of the Bible and using the first name they spotted. Songs such as 'Latchmere' and 'One Hand Holding' have become staple festival favourites. Their 3rd album Given to the Wild saw the band create a more grown up sound, which was rewarded by their biggest chart position to date, with the album going to No.4.
