BIO:
The Final is an Indie Rock band started by 2 friends that quickly tired of keeping up with the trendy music of their time, and chose instead, to be original and unique in their sound, which is why we love them! Once that decision was made, inspiration struck and the band grew. They increased in size, in ability, and morphed into the talented group displayed before you, take a listen for yourself. 

In 2 short years the final has proven themselves to be a self-sustaining band, with a great following, and the dedication to move forward with integrity. They've made their mark in Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin, and will continue to do so nationwide. . . Their songs are well-written and catchy, and always leave you wishing for that kind of honesty in your every day life. 

But don't take our word for it, listen to "Sarah" and then tell me you don't want to spend a night playing pool and shooting the shit with these guys. There is a blatant honesty to this music that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy because here's a band that "gets it", the music, the lyrics, the feelings - from warm and fuzzy to intense and invasive, they cover the spectrum and never leave you bored. 

Based on their passion for the music and the strength of their early recordings, The Final has opened for nationally recognized bands such as, Pepper, Better Than Ezra, and Winter In Alaska.  They credit their inspiration to bands like Nada Surf, Built to Spill, Superdrag, Wilco, and Radiohead. We hope you like what you hear from them, because if we have anything to say about it (and we do) there's gonna be a lot more of The Final to come.
