art avalon1950s pop sensation Frankie Avalon will perform at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 13, at the Smoky Mountain Center for the Performing Arts in Franklin.

Avalon has had a career that spans three generations of music, television and motion pictures, including an iconic cameo as the Teen Angel in the motion picture musical, “Grease.” With a long string of gold record million-seller singles and albums, Avalon’s music became one of the defining sounds of the pre-Beatles rock-n-roll and was honored with an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995. 

Tickets start at $35 or www.greatmountainmusic.com.
