South Carolina's favourite pullers of heartstrings Band of Horses will play a private show at craft beer haven Wayward Brewery in Sydney, and tickets are currently up for grabs. It's beer and Band of Horses live. Get on it.

The Seattle-formed rock group are touring Australia this July to promote their latest slam dunk of an album Why Are You OK. They'll play Splendour in the Grass on July 22, Melbourne's Forum Theatre on July 24, and the Sydney Opera House on July 25, before wrapping up their visit with an intimate, invite-only acoustic gig for a specially selected audience at Camperdown's beloved Wayward Brewery.

Want to be part of it? You just have to gush over your favourite fivesome. The private show is being sponsored by Optus, who are running an online competition for fans to score tickets. To enter, you simply have to explain in 25 words or less what your favourite track off the band's new album is, and why. Winners will receive a double pass to the show, which is set to take place at the brewery on July 27. Entries close on July 18.

For now, here's a 'Casual Party' for you:
