49 Winchester debuts new track ‘Oh Savannah’ ahead of Change of Plans release
Alt-country band 49 Winchester has released its new single, “Oh Savannah,” the final preview of the group’s upcoming album, Change of Plans.
The album, scheduled for release on May 15 via Lucille Records / MCA, was executive produced by Grammy winner Dave Cobb. The track “Oh Savannah” was written by frontman Isaac Gibson alongside Jessie Jo Dillon and Chris Tompkins, drawing inspiration from the band’s time recording with Cobb in Savannah, Georgia.
“We started this thing from the smallest seed possible,” Gibson said. “By staying true to that same mindset, it finally feels like now is our time to come up.”
The project marks a new partnership between MCA and New West Records. Following “Slowly” and “Pardon Me,” the new single continues a direction for the band defined by emotional honesty and musical exploration.
Hailing from Castlewood, Virginia, the group includes Gibson, lead guitarist Bus Shelton, bassist Chase Chafin, pedal steel player Noah Patrick, keyboardist Tim Hall, and drummer Justin Louthian. The band recorded the new album in eight days, capturing a sound that blends Southern rock, country, and folk.
49 Winchester is currently on a headline tour and will support Eric Church and Tim McGraw throughout 2026. To celebrate the album’s release next week, the band is scheduled to perform at the Grand Ole Opry and The Blue Room in Nashville, as well as The Caverns in Pelham, Tennessee.
Change of Plans is set for release on May 15.
