The media is intrigued as well:
\n“GYPSY RUNAWAY TRAIN, a stone-cold winner for THE ROYS, in which ample evidence is presented to prove them still on an upward arc as singers and songwriters.”<\/em>\u00a0–\u00a0<\/em>David McGee,\u00a0<\/strong>Deep Roots<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The entire album is a showcase for the clear-as-crystal harmonies of Elaine and Lee Roy that will leave you wanting more.\u00a0 Ever since their debut album, THE ROYS have been on the right track.\u00a0 It’s nice to see that at this point, they are going full steam ahead.”<\/em>\u00a0–\u00a0Greg Victor, ParkBench.com<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Their new single is Bluegrass at its best, fast and furious. THE ROYS come out of the blocks in a hurry, and with some dazzling picking and fine lead vocals they produce the goods.”<\/em>\u00a0–\u00a0Maurice Hope, R2 ROCK’n’REEL, UK<\/strong><\/p>\n
