Saturday afternoon shenanigans at Smith's. The Snake Oil Preachers bring you the thrill of sin, the fear of damnation and the joy of redemption. One night of praying and six nights of fun makes your odds against going to heaven six to one.

Formed in the crucible of the hardest winter on record, Canberra’s very own Snake Oil Preachers are a salve for your tender hearts, a balm to your worried minds and stimulation for your weary ears. Drawing on the rich tradition of music made by sinners, for sinners, about sinners, their mission is simple, yet profound – punch out a couple of sets of shimmering, soulful, tough (but yet sensitive) tunes that will get you toe-tapping, dancing and thanking the universe for whatever senses you have left.
