The Fortunes

The Fortunes are one of British pop's most enduring success stories. Formed in Birmingham in the early 1960s, the band built their reputation on gloriously rich vocal harmonies and an instinct for an unforgettable hook. Their 1965 debut hit You've Got Your Troubles shot into the UK Top Three and crossed the Atlantic to crack the US Top Ten — an impressive double for any British act of the era. Further hits followed thick and fast, including Here It Comes Again and This Golden Ring, before the band reinvented themselves into the seventies with the stomping Freedom Come Freedom Go and the breezy Storm in a Teacup, both UK Top Ten singles. More than six decades on from their formation, The Fortunes continue to tour and perform, bringing their catalogue of timeless pop classics to audiences who know every word — and new ones who quickly wish they did.
