The Maccabees have announced plans for another tour of the UK to take place during March of 2012, as well as revealing the video for 'Pelican'.

The four-piece are already planning to play a number of shows around the UK in January, when they'll also release their third album 'Given To The Wild'.

They'll now play 14 shows - including Belfast, Edinburgh, Wolverhampton, and a hometown gig in Brighton - throughout the month, starting at Dublin Academy on 3 March.

The band, who recently announced that 'Pelican' would be the first single to come from the new album, have also been invited to play a show for MTV on 24 January, meaning their date in Newcastle on that day has had to be rescheduled.

Instead they'll play at Newcastle Academy on 29 January with all tickets still valid, while playing at London's Koko as part of MTV's Brand New for 2012 Showcases on 24 January, along with Lana Del Rey.
