‘Fortune Favors the Bold’ is the country rock band’s fourth studio album

Country rockers 49 Winchester are set to release their fourth album, Fortune Favors the Bold. The group will put it out through New West. With the announcement of the album, the band shared the video for the record’s lead track, “Annabel.”

Hailing from Castlewood, Virginia, 49 Winchester is slated to release Fortune Favors the Bold on May 13. It will be the band’s fourth studio record since their forming as teenagers on Winchester Street in the town of only 2,045 people. The 10-track album was co-produced by the band and Stewart Myers (O.A.R., The Infamous Stringdusters) with additional recording and production by Kenny Miles (Wayne Graham).

“Annabel” is a wholesome, evil-doer’s plea for love: “You wanted a man to marry / And I could never get past my sin.” Frontman Issac Gibson’s husky drawl sears of the pain of living in one’s own head, in which the band’s intertwining of piano, harmonies, and strings beautifully carries that agony through their country-kissed workmanship.

“I wrote ‘Annabel’ not long after the band first started,” Gibson said. “We played it some, retired it, and forgot about it. It was a good tune we had never recorded and hadn’t played live in a while so we revisited it, breathed some new life into its lungs and it turned out to be one of my favorite tracks on the record.

“We decided on it as the initial release from this album because it perfectly sums up what we set out to do, which was to push our sonic boundaries. We used some different instrumentation than usual — Bus plays the baritone guitar, there is an acoustic track there. It’s just lush and rich. Stewart Myers, who recorded the album, did a really killer job of capturing that big, full sound we wanted, alongside the post-production by Kenny Miles. ‘Annabel’ is definitely one of the shining examples of that.”

Fortune Favors the Bold follows 49 Winchester’s 2020 self-released III.

“Signing with New West Records is something we’re really proud of,” Gibson said. “They’re an artist-centered label who gave us total creative freedom to make a record that is authentically us, and I speak for all the guys in the band when I say we are super excited about this being a New West release. I don’t think any other label could fit us so perfectly. We are looking forward to getting this record out and playing it on the road this summer!”

The band is set to perform at Willie Nelson’s Luck Reunion and SXSW Music Festival next month, and you can catch them at Floydfest, Merlefest, Red Wing Roots Music Fest, and/or the Bristol Rhythm and Roots reunion. Fortune Favors the Bold is available for pre-order now.
