Fortune Child

On Friday, December 11, 2026, American power trio Fortune Child plays at De Piek in Vlissingen. The band consists of guitarist Buddy Crump, bassist Jon Ward, and drummer/lead singer Christian Powers, and was formed in 2021 in Jacksonville, Florida.

Their music combines rock and roll, blues, soul, and psychedelic influences: solid riffs alternate with soulful vocals, extended jams, and adventurous passages. Influences from Led Zeppelin, Alice in Chains, and The Black Crowes are evident, but the trio puts its own spin on them. Fortune Child has previously worked with producer and engineer Kevin Elson, known for his work with Journey, Mr. Big, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, and has shared the stage with acts like The Black Crowes, Joe Bonamassa, Cedric Burnside, JJ Grey & Mofro, All Them Witches, and Shovels & Rope.

Live, the trio is known for tight, energetic shows where interplay and improvisation take center stage.
