BIO
Remy Balon is a Brooklyn based
musician, originally from a small corn field town in Southern
Ohio.
Grandson of a former big band musician and pianist, he was raised
on music from the late 70s and
later took influence from such acts as Elliott
Smith and Ryan
Adams. Remy had two songs,
"Black Hearts" and "Chad's Favorite Song" (a "Defiance,
Ohio" cover) featured in the 2007
Oscar Nominated Film "Half
Nelson" and one song on
the accompanying Lakeshore Records
soundtrack.
Today, Remy plays with band mates Jayme Elterman (Cello, Vocals),
Mike
Presta (Drums) and Josh Burnett(Piano) to create a beautifully
low-fi acoustic
folk
rock sound that showcases those Ohio roots. Remy released "The
Silhouettes EP" in
April of 2010 and has a full length album in preparation for
a Fall 2010 release.
