Nashville, TN (September 28, 2010) --
Brother/sister duo, THE ROYS, have signed an exclusive agreement with
"impeccably tasteful" bookers NEW FRONTIER TOURING, whose
roster includes: The Avett
Brothers, The Grascals, Riders In The Sky and Larry Carlton.
"We are excited to be working with this incredibly talented
duo," says NFT's President, Paul R. Lohr. "Great sibling
harmony, hot picking and good-hearted folks. Right up our alley! 2011
is going to be a tremendous year for us all."
THE
ROYS' roots-based music is a mixture of Country and Bluegrass, and the
duo crosses genres with an ease that is effortless and
undeniable. "It's just who we are musically,"
says Elaine Roy. "It's not a conscious thing, it's just who
we are." Lee and Elaine Roy hail from Fitchburg,
Massachusetts and carry on the strong New England Roots music
tradition. They have performed across the U.S. and Canada
sharing the bill with The Oak Ridge Boys, George Jones, Collin Raye and
Chris Young.
With
two projects in the works, THE ROYS are kicking their career into high
gear. They recently made their national television debut on the
annual Jerry Lewis Labor Day Muscular Dystrophy Association
telethon, and in August, they traveled to Bogota, Columbia, South
America as part of an outreach mission sponsored by Compassion
International, an organization for which they are now
spokesmen. THE ROYS are the reigning Inspirational Country Music Duo
of the Year, and have been nominated for that honor again this
year. Additionally, their current Country radio single "Beautiful,"
is #32 this week on the Music Row chart, and is nominated for 2010 Christian
Country Song of the Year.
