Here's an excerpt from a recent acoustic show:
To close out the evening, we’ve yet another band I’ve witnessed before tonight (I’m sensing a trend here). The last time I saw these guys, they impressed me with their high energy rock ‘n roll. Also to be noted, the way they always try to get the crowd involved and let them know that they’re a part of the show.
That being said, let’s welcome Finer.
Though with the way the rules are, they were more like Finer minus 1 (keyboardist Manny De La Rosa was absent due to keys not being allowed). That being said, I’m a little nervous that they may lose their edge or their intensity when they switch to being “unplugged.”
And five seconds in, my worries are washed away.
Heck, not even a brief audio failure could stop them. Bassist Ethan James made himself the standard for how to play bass (and even guitar for that matter. His solos are something to be witnessed); singer/guitarist Stacy Basner got the crowd going; and maybe more importantly, they didn’t lose anything switching to acoustic.

Hard to believe that not a day goes by when each member of Finer doesn't regret not becoming an accountant...not. Different backgrounds, different stories, but the goal is the same: To make incredible music and to make people feel good.

Stacy grew up in New York and met Ethan in Los Angeles at the Musician's Institute. They played music with some great folks and eventually headed back to Ethan's hometown in Indianapolis, where they focused on building a career around playing and writing music full time.
