49 Winchester – III (CD)
Product Details
Deep in the Virginia coalfields, 49 Winchester have spent the better part of a decade earning their audience the old-fashioned way, night after night on the road. *III* arrives as the sound of a band that has grown into itself, with Isaac Gibson's songwriting carrying the weight of a community and a landscape that doesn't show up much in mainstream country anymore.
Hailing from the tiny town of Castlewood, Virginia, 49 Winchester take their name from the street address of the childhood home of lead vocalist/guitarist Isaac Gibson. He and neighbor Chase Chafin formed the group after graduating high school in 2013, adding guitarist Bus Shelton soon afterward; drummer Justin Louthian, keyboardist Tim Hall, and pedal steel guitarist Noah Patrick later rounded out the lineup.
49 Winchester released their eponymous debut album in 2014, a record anchored by ten original songs from Gibson. The group then set out on the road, supporting the album and building an audience through constant roadwork. Then, In 2018 the band released their second album titled, The Wind. The band continued to tour on the road with crowds growing along the way. The Wind features such hits as, “So Damn Sweet” and “Veruca Salt.” In 2020 the band released their largest record to date, III and began garnering a lot of attention based on the performance of the songs, “Hays, Kansas” and “Everlasting Lover.”
