I gotta believe that ‘Still Standing’ is the breakout hit for The Roys. The melody and chorus just stick to ya – Joe Limardi, 650 AM WSM.

The Roys are one of those artists that you wait in anticipation for their next project to come out, knowing that you won’t be disappointed – Rusty James of WDRT Radio.

Lee and Elaine have created a series of brief videos for Bluegrass Today readers, to introduce the songs in advance of the release of New Day Dawning.  Each Tuesday, the publication will feature an audio sample from the album, along with a video clip from The Roys.

The siblings are certainly doing their part carrying on the tradition of tight family harmony that has become so well-known in Bluegrass and Country music.  With their immaculate harmonies and impeccable musicianship, The Roys have become one of the fastest-rising acts in the business; heralded for their traditional vocal styling and a progressive instrumental attitude that has enchanted fans around the world.

Not only have the Lee and Elaine been hailed for their vocals and musicianship, but they also contribute their impressive songwriting talents to all seven tracks on New Day Dawning.
