The Maccabees have unveiled a series of UK tour dates for next month as they close in on the completion of a third studio album.
The tour will be launched at Gloucester’s Guildhall on October 21st, with two dates in Scotland following at the Glasgow Arches and Edinburgh’s Liquid Rooms on October 26th and 27th respectively. As the tour moves into November, the final two dates will arrive in London and Bristol.
The Maccabees recently told NME they are entering ‘the final stage’ of work on a new album, but have yet to put names to all of their finished products.
“Some of them don’t have names, we’re finding the names really difficult. You should never leave the names to last you should do that early otherwise you get stuck,” Hugo White explained. “We’re trying to finish mixing the record at the moment, it’s at the final stage so it’s all go.”
