About The Fortunes
Artist Biography
A British Invasion quintet inspired by the bouncy, harmony-driven sound of Merseybeat, the Fortunes are probably best-known in the U.S. for their oldies radio staple "You've Got Your Troubles" from 1965. The band found its niche crafting melancholy, orchestrated ballads similar to Peter & Gordon, the Moody Blues, or the Zombies (and in fact, toured with the former two). After label and personnel instability in the later '60s, the Fortunes staged an unexpected comeback in 1971 with the single "Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again," which represented their second and final appearance in the U.S. Top 20. Their next single, "Freedom Come, Freedom Go," flopped stateside, but returned the group to the British Top Ten, a feat repeated by its follow-up, "Storm in a Teacup."
