ROYS TROE bus wrapTHE ROYS aligned with Team RealTree Outdoor Energy last year for a strategic partnership that included tour sponsorship. Lee and Elaine travel to their shows in a strikingly-wrapped Team RealTree Outdoor Energy camouflage bus.
  

Known for their outstanding vocals, memorable songs and top-notch musicianship, THE ROYS are regarded as one of the fastest-rising successes in the music industry today. They have blazed a trail across the country spreading their distinctive brand of Bluegrass to longtime fans of the genre and "newbies" alike. Their sophomore disc for Rural Rhythm Records, NEW DAY DAWNING (2012), debuted at Number 2 on the BILLBOARD Bluegrass Albums Chart in early September and two weeks later climbed to Number 1 on Amazon's Bluegrass Best Sellers list.

 

The EP is currently on the BLUEGRASS UNLIMITED MAGAZINE Top 15 Chart and is one of SiriusXM BLUEGRASS JUNCTION's most played albums. Last October, Lee and Elaine were named Inspirational Country Music's Bluegrass Artist of the Year (2012). They were previously honored with that award in 2011 and dubbed the organization's Duo of the Year in 2010 and 2009.

 

Fans can keep up with the red-hot duo online at THE ROYS and can look for Lee and Elaine's next CD this summer.

  

Ross, famous for producing some of the world's best hunting bows and for his television show, is also a skilled pro in the creation of quality musical equipment. In the 1960s, his father Bud Ross founded Kustom Electronics, at one time the world's largest music equipment manufacturer. Kustom Amplifiers, easily identified by their tuck-and-roll cabinet, made the company famous. Because of his father's success, Andy grew up surrounded not only by the manufacturing process but also by legendary artists of the day. He developed a personal love for music that is matched only by his passion for hunting.
