Mojo Juju & the Snake Oil Merchants
Sellin’ You Salvation – Tour Sept / Oct’08
'Fanfare to the damned & depraved.”

 Mojo Juju & the Snake Oil Merchants(those rag tag musical rat bags), elope with Opposable Thumbs, Melbourne’s circus sideshow superstars! This Sept/October, they will be making a pilgrimage from Melbourne to Byron to bring Vaudeville, Sideshow, Punk & Burlesque to the willing.

Each are flamboyant entertainers in their own right. Now they join forces to create an interactive show of old fashioned indulgence.
Opposable Thumbs push the boundaries of contemporary sideshow performance.
Mojo Juju and The Snake Oil Merchants deliver their sultry and sinister Vaudeville Blues & Junkyard Jazz, sound tracking and intertwining with these daredevil antics of freak show proportions.

 ‘(Mojo Juju & the Snake Oil Merchants are) Eccentric, dirty, strange, sensual and rollickingly robust, their music takes audiences through places where the wild things grow...’ -Drum Media.

Each night they will also be joined by Sydney’s bent burlesque sugar bomb, Lillian Starr, fresh home from her European Tour. Perverted pinup, politically up-yours and leaving a trail of glitter with every footstep. Lillian Starr is the very essence of high femme on stage.

With a collection of the East Coast’s finest bands making guest appearances to open the show every night, you must catch them in your town.
