Fortner Brothers Blend Tradition and Youthful Energy on New Single
“The song’s overall feel comes across really strong — heartfelt, faith-centered, emotional, and very much in the wheelhouse of classic Christian Country storytelling. It has that timeless family-harmony sound that feels both traditional and fresh, which fits the Fortner Brothers perfectly.”
— Charles Brady, Radio Music Group
The Fortner Brothers’ newest release, “Without You I Haven’t Got a Prayer,” is a powerful reminder of just how dependent we are on God’s grace and guidance each and every day. Featuring the family’s signature harmonies, heartfelt delivery, and strong musical roots, the song blends classic Christian Country emotion with a fresh young energy that continues to connect with audiences across generations.
Originally recorded by the legendary group Midsouth in the 1980s, the Fortner Brothers fell in love with the song the very first time they heard it and quickly made it a fan favorite during their live concerts. Whether introducing the song to a brand-new audience or bringing back cherished memories for longtime Midsouth fans, the response has been overwhelming everywhere they perform it.
With the blessing of original writer Robby McGee and the members of Midsouth, the Fortner Brothers have now brought new life to this timeless message of faith, surrender, and dependence on Christ. “Without You I Haven’t Got a Prayer” is more than a remake — it’s a heartfelt testimony delivered by one of Christian Country music’s fastest-rising young groups.
