Album Intro：
Faith, music and family are the cornerstones of The Roys life and they all intersect on LONESOME WHISTLE. The album showcases Elaine s beautiful, emotion-laden voice and Lee s effervescent tenor. The project also shines a spotlight on the duo s songwriting abilities.
There are numerous highlights on the album including: Coal Minin Man, the first single, a tribute to the life of the miner and the high energy Give A Ride To The Devil, which offers up the sage wisdom that if you give a ride to the devil, someday he s gonna want to drive. Trailblazer is Elaine s nod to one of her heroes, Dolly Parton.
