   About King Farook

King Farook are a critically acclaimed, award-winning band based in Sydney who’ve been selling out shows and blowing away festival stages and awards ceremonies across Australia. Reviewed by Drum Media as “the tightest band in Sydney”, and featured on the cover of the Sydney Morning Herald Metro Magazine as the “Next Big Things”, they’re set to continue in the tradition of musical exports that Australia has proudly given the world.

King Farook are finishing up their "4-Piece Feed" tour with a run of 5 shows at the Sandringham Hotel, Newtown.

The shows will go from Tuesday 22nd July through to Saturday 26th July, and as a myspace fan YOU are entitled to a special secret discount! Read on for details...

You might remember our weekly Tuesday night residency at the Sando back in 2007. We had some great times - it's only a smallish room so we can get right up close and personal.

Well, what better way of saying thanks to you our fans for all the support you've given us during our 4-Piece Feed Tour than by returning there to throw a big Finale of 5 nights worth of parties with special guests and different sets each and every night?

It gets better! Myspace fans (that's you) are entitled to a special discounted $5 ticket for the first two shows - Moshtix are even waiving the booking fee! To claim the discount, you must use one of the links below. You can't get there by navigating through Moshtix website, it's only being made available direct to fans.

These will be the last Sydney shows until the end of the year - so make sure you get your tickets while they last. This will be the most special King Farook experience yet!

Oh, and feel free to forward the links to your friends so they can grab the discounted tickets as well!
