Balladeers Anne and Rob Lough will present a concert of traditional music at 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 5, on the Macon County Courthouse Plaza in Franklin.

The program includes folk songs that reflect the musical heritage of the Southern Appalachians and the nation, including mountain ballads, songs of the American frontier and other traditional Irish and Scottish tunes, with some tall tales thrown in.

Attendees should bring a lawn chair and sit in the shade of the courthouse, where the artists will perform.
