are from london but they now live in brighton. they play rock music and they like it. and we like it. and you should listen to it, cos you might like it too. they were never really part of the haircut coop, but whatever coop they were in they have flown it now. they've been together a little over a year, and they introduce themselves as follows:
"The Maccabees are a five piece outfit from London who live in Brighton. They Play fast, bass driven songs with spikey guitars, and the noble intention of making people dance the pigeon! The band formed late 2003, with the line up of Orlando Weeks (vocals), the White Brothers Hugo and Felix (Guitars), Rupert Jarvis (Bass), and Robert Dylan Thomas (drums). In the 14 months they’ve been together, they’ve played over 40 gigs, spreading the twitch across the South East."
