ARTIST TO WATCH: The BalCOny

Written by Brittany Taormina. Published: October 26 2015

 

The extremely talented Wesley Stromberg and Kenny Holland have formed a musical duo known as The BalCOny.

 

Many know Wes best from the group Emblem3 and Kenny for is 6-second covers on Vine. I don’t know about you, but I am pretty excited that these two have decided to collaborate. Their name, The BalCony, came from writing songs together on a balcony. Pretty fitting, if you ask me. Their voices complement one another and it’s obvious that they have the same work ethic.

 

They have released their first single, “Fire”, and there is a rock/beach vibe to their sound that still manages to be refreshing and different, which is really nice in the music industry. It sets them apart! It’s a very “chill” sound, which showcases their carefree yet hardworking personalities. Take a listen!

 

 

 

Their first live performance together took place at Digifest in NYC, and they definitely know how to put on a show! It’s obvious that they put a lot of time into practicing and rehearsing. They also have a new video series called “The BalCOny Life” on YouTube. How awesome is that? Take a look at their NYC journey.

 

 

 

Their official music video for "Fire" premiered last week, and it is -- you guessed it -- FIRE!

 

 

 

These two are definitely making a NEW name for themselves and have so much talent! Wishing Wes and Kenny the best of luck with their career.
