About
(Folk-rock) 49 Winchester began as an acoustic trio from the small town of Castlewood, Virginia, in the fall of 2013. They quickly made a name for themselves and gained a following throughout the region with their unique blend of melodic folk songs. With an added rhythm section, the five-piece band attracted attention from Gold Ship Records and released their debut, self-titled album in April 2014.
The music of 49 Winchester combines acoustic traditional styles with modern-day influences to create an energetic and melodic blend of folk-rock. This eclectic group of musicians takes pride in the brotherhood that being in a band holds, and their closeness as a unit shines through their live performances. In just the last few months, this young group has taken the region by storm and has quickly become one of the most exciting and fastest growing groups on the scene.
