Final Cut is a high-energy dance band in demand for their repertoire of ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s, and ‘90s rock and roll and country classics. With a few original songs of their own sprinkled through their sets, the trio—Joe Ambrose, Shaelene Ambrose, and Andre LeBlanc—has a strong, loyal following, and a busy schedule playing at local bars, clubs, and private parties. Featuring Joe and his wife Shaelene trading off lead vocals and harmonies, their sound is driven by Joe’s guitar, stomp box, and beats, Shaelene’s soulful, bluesy harmonica and tambourine, and Andre’s solid, tasteful bass-playing.
