Live For The Last Time: The Farewell Shows

Two Nights At Alexandra Palace And One At Manchester O2 Apollo Announced For June/July

 

Last August The Maccabees split, much to the dismay of the musical community. This followed a brilliant 12 month period where the band scaled new heights; headlining Latitude Festival and getting their first number one album with the acclaimed ‘Marks To Prove It’.

 

Now we have the chance to bid this much loved band a proper farewell with two must see nights at London’s Alexandra Palace and one show at the Manchester Apollo next summer. Without doubt, these shows will be one of the highlights of 2017.

 

Felix White says, “We're planning on these final shows being a huge celebration, thank you and goodbye to 14 years of writing, recording, playing and touring together.” 

 

The Maccabees play:

 

June

Wed 28th                              MANCHESTER, O2 Apollo

Fri 30th                                   LONDON, Alexandra Palace

July

Sat 1st                                    LONDON, Alexandra Palace

 

Tickets on sale Friday 9th December at 9am from gigsandtours.com

 

The Maccabees made four seminal albums: ‘Colour It In’ (2007), ‘Wall of Arms’ (2009), ‘Given To Wild’ (2012) and ‘Marks To Prove It’ (2015).

 

The Maccabees are: Orlando Weeks – vocals, Hugo White – guitar, Felix White – guitar, Rupert Jarvis – bass and Sam Doyle – drums.
