Snake Oil started as a group of professional musicians in different bands, who wanted to perform something fun locally, on their downtime from touring. They had no idea when they started, that the demand for what they had put together would explode. So they unwound themselves from their other projects to explore the limitless possibilities, creative freedom and fun they found performing as Snake Oil.

Snake Oil has gained a reputation with their impeccable ability to impersonate 80’s and 90’s rock stars musically and visually. They perform with spectacular costumes, hilarious audience interaction and an array of incredible special effects. Their over-the-top theatrics are complemented with masterful illusions and video support. Snake Oil has an outstanding cast both male and female to ensure an authentic and energetic arena rock show experience. The audience is guaranteed a good time!

Snake Oil has shared concert stages with The Beach Boys, Whitesnake, Starship, Cheap Trick, Night Ranger, Rick Springfield, The Guess Who, Blue Oyster Cult, Slaughter, Great White, Warrant, Bret Michaels, and many other notable groups. Both Dee Snider of Twisted Sister and Stephen Pearcy of Ratt have joined Snake Oil as special guests, at past performances.

The cast of Snake Oil are all experienced professionals. Individually, they’ve toured the world with various musical projects, are sought after studio musicians, and have all been members of notable bands; 2 of which are in the W Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

Snake Oil is releasing their first original album in 2022.
