The Maccabees are playing farewell warm-up shows

The Maccabees will be playing three warm-up shows ahead of their farewell dates.

Having sold out their four huge farewell shows, seeing The Maccabees take to the Manchester O2 Apollo and London’s Alexandra Palace in late June and early July, the band have confirmed three comparably intimate warm-up shows.

They’ll be taking to Birmingham, Glasgow and Newcastle in June, having announced their forthcoming split late last year.

The band will be joined by Matt Maltese at the warm-up shows, whose work has been produced by Maccabees member Hugo White. Mystery Jets have also previously been announced as support for their final shows.
