      On May 19, 2014, the band released their debut full-length 'A Spark To Believe' produced by Kris Crummett.
      Despite the success of the album, it was announced on October 30, 2014, that Miss Fortune had been dropped by Sumerian Records following lead singer Mikey Sawyer's arrest on domestic assault charges in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
      Sawyer published a statement on November 14 providing court records showing the singer was exonerated on all charges and would remain as the lead vocalist of the band moving forward. The band was not invited back onto the label.

      Also, sometime in 2018, the group released a track called "When The Lights Go Out", but the track got deleted on all platforms and is no longer available.
      In January 2019, the band released their cover of Post Malone's "Sunflower" as part of the We Are Triumphant cover album, Got You Covered, Vol. 3.
      In July 2019, Miss Fortune announced they were recording their self-titled LP with producer Andrew Wade. The first single 'Hearts on Fire' surfaced on December 5, 2019. Sawyer announced that he had an enlisted a new group to record the album including Hoi Wai Raphael Lam on guitar, Rufus Mann on bass, and Christopher Almendarez on drums.

      On February 5, 2021, Miss Fortune published a song called "The Day The Sun Died" as a teaser to an upcoming album coming later in the 2021 year.
      Later that year, Sawyer added Binot "BNO" Grigio to the lineup on lead guitar, debuting the new member via social media posts in 2022.
