Nashville, TN (September 27, 2012) -- THE ROYS bring their signature harmonies, progressive instrumental attitude and compelling new music to The Station Inn on October 11.  The full-set performance is their first in Music City since the duo's genre-bending sophomore Rural Rhythm Records' EP, NEW DAY DAWNING, hit store shelves on August 28.  For information on The Station Inn show, log on to http://www.stationinn.com or call (615) 255-3307; to learn more about the Jamboree, check 650 AM WSM, which streams the show live from http://www.wsmonline.com. 

 

As a prelude to The Station Inn show, the siblings will visit with 650 AM WSM's Mike Terry, live on the air October 11 at 4 p.m.  A little drive-time entertainment could be in the offering, as THE ROYS rarely leave home without their instruments. 

 

"We cannot wait to see our hometown fans again at The Station Inn and Ernest Tubb Record Shop," states Elaine Roy.  "The Station Inn is a great-feeling room with a lot of energy, and we're excited to host the Midnight Jamboree," adds Lee.

 

The siblings host the world-famous Ernest Tubb Midnite Jamboree on October 13.  The live broadcast kicks off at 12:00 Midnight and streams on http://www.wsmonline.com

 

NEW DAY DAWNING debuted at Number 2 on the Billboard Bluegrass Albums Chart earlier this month, and rose to Number 1 on Amazon's Bluegrass Best Sellers list September 15.  The EP remains in the Top 20 Bluegrass Best Sellers on Amazon

 

 

THE ROYS' current single, "Still Standing," recently enjoyed exclusive coverage on AOL, SiriusXM, FOX NEWS Edge, #CMChat, Bluegrass Radio Network and GAC-TV.  The trend-setting brother/sister duo has appeared on multiple national radio and television outlets already this month.  More national television is scheduled for October, and details will be announced soon. 

 

Reviewers are raving over the disc's personal and insightful songs:

"The brother and sister duo are taking the genre by storm with the release of their sophomore album . . . with their tight family harmony and real life lyrics.” - FOX 17
