2001 is the year that JOE, JAY, DAGGER and SCARLET took the stage and stole the hearts of the German public. Scarlet (female vocals), Dagger (male vocals), Joe Cagg (vocals + guitar) and Jay Lee (violin + guitar) have all been previously involved with record-releasing projects and touring as entertainers.

After years of touring together and single releases they took a break and the rednex torch was carried by new members.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Former Rednex Members form Rednex Tribute band and are ready to tour Europe again

(Holland / UK) – After a two year break from a heavy non stop schedule and European tour, the former Rednex members (SCARLET, DAGGER, JOE CAGG, JAY LEE, and CROCK), have joined forces again to bring you the Ultimate REDNEX Tribute Show!

Two years ago the Rednex flame was burned out for these fantastic performers and artists. Joe Cagg and Jay Lee where the first members to leave the group, 18months later Scarlet also needed some time for herself.

After the leading lady had gone it did not take much time for Crock and Dagger to follow. However the Rednex spirit will always be alive and therefore new members stepped in to carry the torch.

For some however this was not enough and due to popular demand and the repeat requests for this particular fabulous combination of performers, we were encouraged to find all the members again. It took a while to find everyone but we have finally managed it and they are all ready to rock again!

During these past 2 years, Scarlet was helping children and their families restoring the ancient mud homes in the old village of Sun Prairie, some where in Wisconsin. As a symbol of their appreciation and affection for her they presented her with a beautiful horse, to represent power and beauty. Since that moment Scarlet and her treasured friend have been inseparable. In fact after a tip off, that is exactly how we found her, riding her beloved horse along the amazing Wisconsin Lake.

Dagger is a long story, but he was found somewhere in Lapland. After riding his snow mobile and living and playing with the reindeers he was caught in a snowstorm and was buried alive in a snow mountain. It took us 3 months to defrost him and the Indian witch doctor said that it might take several years for his brain to be completely normal again.

Joe Cagg, as we have been told, was searching his inner self and meditated for 2 years in the mountains of Heart’s Desire, a small settlement, somewhere in New Foundland, Canada. He returned in a canoe by following the star of Sirius all the way back to the canals of Amsterdam.Unbelievable!

Jay Lee’s time out took him on a journey back home to his favourite place, The Brunkeflo Lake. One day whilst fishing he was washed away by a freak tidal wave and luckily only survived when he was rescued by the local Idaho Indians. He has been living and helping in their reservation ever since in deep thanks for his rescue. We are still negotiating his release.

After the famous four where located again, Crock, the youngest member of the group, just turned up at the shack, the secret rednex hideout, and insisted he join us again, Of course we were delighted. Where he has been though, nobody knows, and he never speaks about it and by the smell of his socks and the look on his face, no one dares to ask.

Needless to say we are overjoyed to be able to present to you once again our favourite Rednex performers.

The Ultimate Rednex Tribute Show will be a 30 – 60 minute fantastic and energetic performances with lots of classic hit songs but also filled with new and surprising tracks and show elements, all living up to the Rednex standards. They are ready to come to your venue and give you an unforgettable show. But careful now they have not seen civilisation in a while so get ready for a real wild ride.
