The Maccabees announce surprise tour of intimate venues to unveil new songsThe Maccabees ended 2007 on a high with a triumphant sold-out date at London’s Roundhouse and great acclaim for their debut album “Colour It In”: Artrocker made it their Album of The Year, Xfm short-listed it for their Debut Album of The Year and NME called it “The best alt.pop record of 2007, no contest”. Not a band to rest on their laurels, The Maccabees headed straight into the studio where they have been crafting songs for their sophomore record.The Brighton boys are eager to road-test the fruits of their labours, and as befits one of the hardest working bands around, have announced a surprise tour of venues significantly smaller than those they have grown used to playing which means a great opportunity for fans to catch The Maccabees in the sweaty confines of the following clubs in the months of April and May:April
