The Balconies have released their third effort titled "Rhonda." This album has the typical Balconies sound that was established and brought notice to the band from their previous effort. The band has a very 60's classic rock feel to them which is something not many bands are doing, especially with female vocals. The band has a similar sound to that of those old female classic rock artists. They have gone a great job on this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, it has been recorded very well and has everything you are looking for in that sound. The instrumentation on this album is also quite good here, the band can play and they show some of their decent skills on this album. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals on this album are very impressive as this lady can certainly scream and carry her voice quite well. Her voice is what automatically grabs your attention and makes you want to hear more. With the lyrics, the band has done a pretty good job on melding those rock lyrics while still giving a decent story that you can understand. We certainly like the lyrics too. If you are looking for a single to this album, give the song "Rhonda" your attention as it showcases what the band is doing on this album and it is quite a good song. The Balconies have done it again, writing a great album that turns your head and gets you interested in them. Now we just need them to tour a little more and hit all markets. Great album overall. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
