The Balconies is a Toronto-based trio made up of siblings Jacquie (guitar, vocals) and Steven Neville (bass) and Liam Jaeger (drums). They started on the grounds of the University of Ottawa studying classical music and playing local Ottawa bars.
They have shared stages with Cold War Kids, Juliette Lewis, Land of Talk, and Sloan.
Kill Count is The Balconies' new EP and it's available on bandcamp (link below).

The Balconies - Kill Count video:
Inspirations: '90s and early-2000s punk, classic rock, '80s pop, and new wave.
"The Balconies are easily one of Canada's best kept secrets." - The Pop! Stereo Review
"She [Jacquie] definitely has the charisma and magnetisms that marks the difference between being a mere singer in a band and being a rock star." - Quip Magazine
"To say this band is a beast on stage is a dramatic understatement." - Soundproof Magazine
The Balconies have enlisted producer Jon Drew (F**ked Up!, Tokyo Police Club) for their first full-length LP (release date TBD). In between writing and recording, The Balconies will be performing in select cities throughout North America.
