For well over two decades, Fortune has regularly packed venues throughout New England. Hailing from Peabody, MA, this 6-piece band has long maintained a reputation for smooth three and four part vocal harmonies, dynamic and melodic textures of multiple guitars and keyboards, and a tight rhythm section.
Fortune Limelight
A Fortune show always features songs from 1993’s FORTUNE and 1996’s STORYLINE (both originally released in Japan), as well as new material ready for release, but the band is capable of calling out songs from artists such as Queen, Journey, Boston, Queensryche, Led Zeppelin, and many more!
