Released May 7th on Fiction“I'll need heart and you'll need courage, we all need time. Let's make time work for us."If ‘First Love’ was the boy meets girl intro, and ‘About Your Dress’ was the follow up date story – then ‘Precious Time’ is the perfect ending, by a frankly perfect band.The Maccabees – a five piece from Brighton via South London – have been busy hyping crowds into a frenzy while touring around the country. Live show anthem ‘Precious Time’ is an everyman tale of adolescence, young love’s awkwardness and the joys and the exhilaration of your first love. Accurately mirroring the complexities of relationships - Orlando’s lyrics manage to express both an aching anxiety and knowing confidence. Cascading over the frenetic guitar strumming from Hugo, Felix and Rupert, mixed with the urgency of Roberts drum kicks – Precious Time is nothing short of emotion. With the debut album, ‘Colour It In’, out May 14th and the band headlining their own tour, The Maccabees literate pop songs are looking likely to warm hearts all over the UK.
