(VLM) Acclaimed alt-country outfit 49 Winchester will make their long-awaited headlining debut at Nashville's historic Ryman Auditorium with a two-night appearance on Friday, November 14 and Saturday, November 15, 2025. These milestone performances underscore the band's rise from hometown staples in Southwest Virginia to a far-reaching force in the roots music world with a devoted, global fanbase.

The announcement arrives on April 9, a meaningful date for the band and their hometown of Castlewood, Virginia, officially proclaimed as "49 Winchester Day." It also marks the one-year anniversary of the announcement of their most recent album, Leavin' This Holler (New West Records, 2024), a project that further cemented their place among Americana's most vital voices.

Fans can access early presales beginning today, Wednesday, April 9 at 12:00 p.m. CST using the code 49DAY. A local presale will open on Thursday, April 10 at 10:00 a.m. CST, with all presales concluding Thursday, April 10 at 10:00 p.m. CST.

The lineup for the two nights reflects 49 Winchester's deep roots in Appalachian music and their ongoing commitment to community and collaboration:

"It is a blessing to be bringing the show to one of the most iconic stages in America," says founding member and bassist Chase Chafin.
