The Maccabees’ long-awaited return to the stage after eight years away took place at a tiny charity gig on June 20, after a series of intimate European warm-up dates.

They then headlined the Park Stage on Sunday night (June 29) at Glastonbury 2025, where they were joined by Florence Welch for ‘Love You Better’ and ‘Dog Days Are Over’. NME witnessed the show, awarding it five stars, and noting: “It’s only when finale ‘Pelican’ rolls around that the bliss that covers The Park stage starts to slowly fade. It feels too soon for The Maccabees to be leaving after living without them for so long, but the hour they spend on stage is perfect and not to be taken for granted.”

NME also caught up with the band backstage at Glastonbury, with frontman Orlando Weeks saying: “I don’t know about on the larger scale, but it’s the first time my son’s going to see me sing, on a stage anyway. So that’s exciting for me. We’ve been on tour in the last week, just some shows in northern Europe and it’s been so good, I think. Also Glastonbury is such another world that it feels like you don’t have to connect it too much to anything else. It can just be this standalone, bizarre moment.”

As preparations got underway for their big reunion back in January, The Maccabees invited NME into their rehearsal space, where guitarist Felix White told us it felt as if “no time had passed” since they last played together in 2017.

“It’s so strange. In the chunk [of time] from the last show, you could conceive of The Maccabees as a different existence, but as soon as we started playing, it was as if we hadn’t stopped,” he said.

The band also responded to rumours that new music could be on the horizon, with White telling NME: “The plan is to do [All Points East] and see how much we love it.” Drummer Sam Doyle jokingly added: “We might hate each other by August.”

Weeks explained: “Everything we built together as people is very connected to being in a band. We’ve been able to achieve relationships outside of that, but there’s a totally other level of comfort in each other’s company when this is the reason we’re hanging out.
