After a brutal decade of rock ‘n roll, 5 full length albums, numerous prestigious awards, international tours, opening for monster international acts like Metallica, Van Coke Kartel has decided that it is time to call it quits.
The band has not played a live show in 16 months. Rather than just fade away, they will be going out with a bang on their final tour in July 2017.
‘’Van Coke Kartel has been a crazy ride. It was the main focus for Francois van Coke and myself for many years. A lot of work went into the project and we definitely learned a lot from it. It is sad to think that it is all coming to an end, but I’m excited to take the circus on the road for one last time!’’ Wynand Myburgh
‘’When Wynand and I started the project in 2007, we had never been in a band where we were the main songwriters. It took a lot of hard work to create those first records. I think we got our confidence from the fact that we knew that when we hit the stage, we will make up for whatever we lacked in the songwriting. When Jedd joined he took us to a new level and he immediately contributed a lot to the writing process. He still does so today with my solo stuff.’’ Francois van Coke
Van Coke Kartel’s energetic, no-nonsense rock ‘n roll show is celebrated as a high-energy spectacular. Don’t miss the opportunity to see them live for the last time ever:
