49 Winchester at Tønder Festival 2027
American band 49 Winchester, one of the most acclaimed names on today's country music scene, will play their only Danish concert of 2027 at Tønder Festival.
Tønder Festival has once again secured an artist that many Danish fans would otherwise have to travel abroad to experience live.
American band 49 Winchester, one of the most acclaimed names on today's country music scene, will play their only Danish concert of 2027 at Tønder Festival. The performance will take place on Wednesday, August 25, the festival's opening day.
"This is quite a coup for Tønder Festival. We are thrilled to present 49 Winchester for their only Danish concert in 2027. The band has experienced remarkable growth in recent years and built a large and dedicated international fanbase. Their strong songwriting, authentic expression, and deep roots in the American musical tradition make them a perfect fit for Tønder Festival," says Maria Theessink, Artistic Director of Tønder Festival.
49 Winchester has steadily built a reputation as one of the most compelling acts on the modern country scene. From their humble beginnings in Castlewood, Virginia, they have grown into a band capable of selling out venues and attracting an ever-growing audience around the world.
Formed by childhood friends Isaac Gibson and Chase Chafin, the band has developed a distinctive sound rooted in the storytelling traditions of Appalachia. Drawing inspiration from country, rock, and folk music, they have created a musical identity that is both timeless and original. Their relentless work ethic and unwavering commitment to authenticity have taken them from front-porch jam sessions to major stages across the globe.
Their latest album, Change of Plans, marks a significant chapter in the band's journey. Recorded in just eight days with Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb, the album captures 49 Winchester at the height of their creative powers. Balancing raw energy with musical sophistication, the record explores themes of change, maturity, and perseverance.
Spanning energetic, genre-bending songs and deeply personal, reflective tracks, Change of Plans demonstrates why 49 Winchester is widely regarded as one of the most exciting acts in contemporary American roots and country music.
"We started this thing from the smallest possible seed... and by maintaining that same mindset, it finally feels like our time has come," says frontman Isaac Gibson.
For Danish audiences, Tønder Festival will be the only opportunity to experience 49 Winchester live in Denmark in 2027.
