Snake Oil 1/22/17 Cafe 9

 Snake Oil is a post rock quartet who played some original songs for this manic Monday. Male drummer and bassist, female guitarist and Asian female keys were the group. The bio led me to believe that this group has shapeshifted from an instrumental outfit ( like Tortoise or Sea and Cake), to a more vocal oriented affair. You could still hear the strains of the instrumental backdrop with the ladies singing over top. One tune had a Yoko-esque intro before entering an instrumental The End type feel. Prog was also touched upon as the closer was a three part song cycle.
