49 Winchester grew from front-porch sessions and local shows into an internationally touring six-piece. Formed by childhood friends Isaac Gibson and Chase Chafin, the band has spent years honing a sound rooted in Appalachian storytelling, blending Country, rock and folk influences into something distinctly their own. After three self-released albums, they signed with New West Records for Fortune Favors the Bold (2022), followed by Leavin' This Holler (2024) and Change of Plans (2026).
