KILDEMOSEFESTIVAL PROUDLY PRESENTS:

REVEREND SHINE SNAKE OIL CO.
Saturday 21:00



The true origins of REVEREND SHINE SNAKE OIL Co. are shrouded in hearsay and conjecture. It is however a story to be told and as the name suggests, it is anything but simple…

Moving from their native New York to Copenhagen, Claudius Pratt and song writing partner Justin Moses Gunn founded REVEREND SHINE SNAKE OIL Co. in 2007.They are joined by Martin Ollivierre on bass, Matthias Klein on drums and Niko Hoi playing harmonica, saw and hammond B3 organ
Primitive & grounded, folk-tales connect seemingly disparate genres into a single curbstone philosophy “SOAP BOX MUSIC”. Converging African polyrhythm’s with punk-rock dissonance. Combining swing, rock-steady and rhythm & blues… Sarcastic and sentimental; Agitated and serene...
RSSOCo. is a throwback to the Negro spirituals and the American folk tradition. They too are a salute to advertising and commercialism- raised together, like traveling horse and buggy teams, peddling miracle medications and their sundries to a stripped and intimate pulse.
Their EP "SOAP BOX" is their calling card and like the Sunday soapbox orators of Hyde Park London, who have assembled at Speaker's Corner since 1872 to discuss religion, politics, and other topics so to this record express their concerns and is a flamboyant release of frustrations…
Vocalist Claudius "ANGERYMAN" Pratt a.k.a. the Bowery Barometer fancies himself a clergyman and a prostitute.
Offering up some comfort in this world of both the sacred and profane.
Come see the medicine show and drink of the balm that is known to cure disease, smooth facial wrinkles, remove stains in clothing and prolong life.
