Filmed during 2012 IBMA Week, Lee and Elaine perform six songs from their NEW DAY DAWNING and LONESOME WHISTLE projects and are highlighted in four interview clips. This is the eighth installment of the series which centers on a "family entertainers" theme. Appearing along with THE ROYS on the one-hour show are Darin & Brooke Aldridge and The Bankesters.

Currently, the duo is promoting their third release for Rural Rhythm Records, GYPSY RUNAWAY TRAIN. Reviewers are calling the disc THE ROYS' best to-date, describing the singing, writing and playing as "flawless." The title track and CD are chart-active and are resonating with fans.
