About

Snake Oil on Tour

You say you wanna rock? OK then, soldier, pick your poison: Ozzy Osbourne, Motley Crue, Queen, KISS, Van Halen, Journey, Def Leppard, AC/DC, Twisted Sister, Heart, Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, Scorpions... The biggest, brashest, head-banging-est legends of rock and roll from the 1980s all come together when Snake Oil takes the stage. This six-man wrecking crew knows how to sell it: the spandex and the leather, the pyrotechnics and the fog machines, the volume and the energy. And the moves! From David Lee Roth's high kicks to Billy Idol's sneer to Alice Cooper's boa constrictor, Snake Oil is more than a tribute band, they're the full-on embodiment of a lifestyle, ferociously fun and irresistibly irrepressible. 

With dozens of costume changes and a rotating cast, Snake Oil shows combine note-for-note musical authenticity, athletic choreography and more than a little comedy into a performance unlike any other. The band — Jiz on guitar and vocals, Roxxx and Hammer on bass and vocals, G-Spot on drums and Ryan Coke on bass — are a collection of hard-rock lifers who originally came together within Winnipeg, Canada's thriving live music scene. They're led by a chameleonic frontman known as Due, who transforms from one iconic rock star to another with nary a teased hair or pink bandanna out of place. His costumes are custom-designed replicas and his between-song banter comically spot-on in both accent and content. His Paul Stanley is so accurate he's been mistaken for the real thing.

Snake Oil is 100 percent committed to providing the ultimate live rock and roll experience. This is a band that literally guarantees a good time. Says Due, "If there's a group of people sitting there like sticks in the mud, we'll come offstage and we'll drag them into the show. We'll make sure they have fun." 

You've been warned.

    The band is so good. The singing was amazing and the male singer with his costumes and acting the part was so good and accurate to the band/singer he portrayed! ( especially the Ozzy Osbourne was spot on!!) Christelle’s vocals are amazing. Great evening of entertainment!!

    Snake oil

    by GB on 11/2/22RiverPark Center - Owensboro

    Snake oil Did not disappoint. Over 2 1/2 hours of nonstop rocking. Some of the artist were dead on. Others were still really good. I honestly could have done without the Rob Zombie but that’s just my musical taste.

    Loved the show unfortunately we had some ppl in front of us that wouldn't sit. Not like they couldn't see they were 8n front and center. I know the6 were having a good time but were infringing on mine.

    Keep on rocking!

    by Cnc323 on 11/1/22RiverPark Center - Owensboro

    The musicians were great. They performed songs from several bands and multiple genres and truly did them all justice. We enjoyed the show and hope to see them again. The venue was small but fitting for a show this size. Our only negative was the crowd! They were pretty lame, just sitting in their seats and barely applauding. We did not go to sit, we went to rock!
