The Romany Rye is a band formed by Luke MacMaster, former guitarist of The Colour.
Their first album, Highway 1, Looking Back Carefully, was released on October 5, 2009 with a track listing of eight songs.
The band could be categorized as indie folk-rock and draws comparisons to the likes of Neil Young, My Morning Jacket, Ryan Adams & The Cardinals, and many others.
The album contained 12 tracks including "Brother" and "Untitled (Love Song)" from their previous release.
However, it was later reported that the band was disqualified due to a non disclosure agreement violation after Round Two.
