"Here is a band that doesn't follow the normal or traditional path to making bluegrass music. They're not your Mama's Oldsmobile and they aren't your Daddy's Bluegrass. The band does, however, have a nack of taking non-bluegrass material and arranging it so that it fits the bluegrass mold quite well. This is a nack that few bands have really been successful with but that these boyz have found a method to that seems to work quite well. The Fabulous Bagasse Boyz play songs from Elvis to Willie Nelson to Johnny Nash. The band is just at home playing traditional bluegrass such as "Angeline The Baker" or William Shively's "Love of the Mountains" or Mark Schatz' "Calgary." This mixture makes a band that can be enjoyed and make you say, "I like it! . . . "

". . . I grabbed a menu and sat back, getting ready to hear at least once that evening “I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow,” the song that every bluegrass band feels compelled to play since the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? came out. After a little teasing and talking with the crowd, they began to play their next song – “Viva Las Vegas.” Yes, you are reading that correctly: a BLUEGRASS band played an Elvis hit. And, more amazing, it was GOOD. Now, I don’t know how you come up with mixing Elvis and bluegrass, and I’m not certain that I really want to know the twisted workings of the mind that could come up with it, but I sure did enjoy the combination. They then broke into their rendition of Gershwin’s “Summertime” and I knew that I was in for a treat . . ."

" . . . Hans "Fritz" Mayers am Banjo und der Mandoline, Willi Sager am Bass und Rex Hall haben sich kurzgeschlossen, um mit der Welt ihr musikalisches Talent und ihre Komik zu teilen. Jetzt legen sie gar ihre CD vor, bestehend aus 17 St..cken. Darunter solch widerspr..chliche wie "Cold, Cold Love" und "Hot Corn, Cold Corn". Brilliant ist das Trio vor allem bez..glich Harmonien. Ihre Stimmen erg..nzen sich perfekt, Schw..chen sind keine auszumachen. Interessant f..r mich pers..nlich sind die 2 St..cke ..ber Indianer. F..r Bluegrass-Musiker ein ziemlich ungew..hnliches Thema. Aber wer sich an den Townes-Klassiker "Pancho And Lefty" wagt, besitzt ohnehin viel Mut. Und K..nnen. Beides scheint den Fabulous Bagasse Boyz bereits in die Wiege gelegt worden zu sein. . ."----(We have no idea what they are saying here but we think it's good)----CountryHome

". . . Their three part harmony singing will please any and all bluegrass fans. I was very impressed by their harmony, it was flawless. . . "

Once upon a time, many years ago in the early 1950's, in three very divergent parts of the country, three lovely young ladies each gave birth to a bouncing baby boy. These mothers were filled with joy and hope for the future for their young offspring. But in 2002, these mothers' hopes were dashed when the grown boyz converged together to form an alliance. There was much consternation from all corners as this axis of goobers became The Fabulous Bagasse Boyz. Hans "Fritz" Mayers on banjo and mandolin, Willi Sager on bass and Rex Hall on guitar came together with the sole purpose of humiliating the musical world with their slip-shod musicianship and annoying arrangements. This was their destiny. De deh deeeeeeeeee! Spring Has Sprung!

Ciao The Fabulous Bagasse Boyz ti volevamo ringraziare per le tue parole e per il tuo sostegno in periodo così difficile per noi.
Questi ringraziamenti non sono formali, sono veramente sinceri a nome nostro, della moglie di Enrico Paola e a nome dei suoi figli.
Le ceneri di Enrico Micheletti sono disperse nel mar Tirreno e stanno viaggiando nell' universo. Noi speriamo che anche la sua anima abbia raggiunto finalmente il miglior approdo possibile.
Cosa fare del suo materiale in nostro possesso e del materiale che abbiamo registrato insieme?
Dopo aver pensato a lungo sul da farsi abbiamo deciso di pubblicarlo. Lo pubblicheremo su Itunes ed altri siti così tutti potranno trovarlo se lo cercano. Glielo dobbiamo. Glielo deve chi lo ha conosciuto.
Cercheremo di pubblicare tutto ciò che è in nostro possesso nei primi mesi del 2009.
