    Finest Hour and Rough Cut at Ozone Lounge

    Finest Hour and Rough Cut are back at Ozone for another weekend of good music and great fun!  Finest Hour will be playing on Friday, February 10th, and Rough Cut will be taking the stage on Saturday, February 11th.  Both bands start playing at 9pm.

    And to help quench your thirst, Ozone's got $4 Ozone vodkas all night!  But if that's not enough for you, stop in early for Ozone's Happy Hour on Friday from 3:30-5:30.  They've got a whole smorgasbord or specials for only $1, $2, & $3!

    Finest Hour was created in 1977 by Jeff Sauvageau and Greg Boulay.  Since then, the band membership has evolved through dozens of line-ups.  In the Fall of 2008 as part of a Creighton Prep class reunion, Jeff and Greg invited the original Finest Hour players who live across the country back to Omaha for a reunion gig.   Biten once again by the "band bug", Jeff and Greg approached a number of local players to form the current line-up.  The first gig with the current line-up was November 4, 2008.  since then, Finest Hour has played about once per month, generally at The Ozone, but also at a variety of private performances most notably the Catholic Charities IrishFest.  What started out as a great sax player in Matt Wallace evolved to a full blown, smokin' horn section called the "Broadband Horns" by late 2009.

    Rough Cut features the beautiful and talented Jessica Greene on lead vocals. Tim Miklas on lead male vocals, and EACH member of this talented 6-piece band of music-scene veterans sings... vocal power times 6 plus terrific musicianship and songs that make you want to jump out of your chair and dance makes Rough Cut the premier dance-rock band in Omaha. Rock, funk, even a bit of "new-country rock" and blues makes for a set list that makes the room come alive!
