33 of the greatest bands of brothers (and sisters)
The history of family bands, from The Kinks to Kings Of Leon, The Jackson 5 to Oasis and more
The Maccabees: Taking their name from a random word they found as they flipped through a Bible, the original line-up consisted of Orlando Weeks, Robert Dylan Thomas (who subsequently left in 2008), brothers Hugo and Felix White and Rupert Jarvis. While none of their singles have breached the UK top 20, they have nonetheless garnered critical and commercial acclaim.

There must be something in the water at these guys' houses. We've come to the realisation that some of the best bands in the world, both modern and classic, seem to be made up of siblings and family members.

We've picked 33 of the best sibling bands we could think of, from the current stars of tomorrow, to the nostalgia-inducing families of yesteryear. Have a look and see what you think...
