Maccabees for Mandela
2009 was a great year for The Maccabees with career-defining sets at Leeds and Reading Festival which had The Observer dubbing them “festival heroes” and NME reminding us “they’re probably the best home-grown indie rock band the UK has to offer right now”.
In ‘Wall of Arms’ they released one of the best-received albums of the year. The record entered the UK album charts at number 13 in May, winning praise across the board from fans and critics alike.
