Battistelli, Jars of Clay play Franklin

Christian singer Francesca Battistelli and rock group Jars of Clay perform at the Smoky Mountain Center for the Performing Arts in Franklin.

Battistelli hits the stage on July 12, with Jars of Clay on July 13. Both performances begin at 7:30 p.m.

Battistelli’s album “My Paper Heart” produced four major hits on the Christian charts, which included “I’m Letting Go,” “Free To Be Me,” “It’s Your Life” and “Beautiful Beautiful.”

Jars of Clay launched its breakout career with the multi-format hit “Flood” in 1995. Since then, it has amassed more than six million in career sales, three GRAMMY Awards, an American Music Award nod, three GMA Dove Awards, and BMI honors for songwriting as well as performing.

Both performances are $20 apiece, with a special price of $34 for a weekend combo ticket.
