Country music artist Lee Greenwood will perform at the Franklin Theatre on Saturday and tickets are still available.
Greenwood has performed before at the theatre for charity events, but Saturday’s event will be a regular concert.
“He’s an iconic singer and has a big audience in the area,” Dan Hays, executive director of the theatre, told The Tennessee Star.
Greenwood is best known for penning the hit song “God Bless the USA,” which was named CMA Song of the Year in 1985 and has been voted the most recognizable patriotic song in America.
He has released more than 30 albums, including I Want to be in Your World, released in 2011. Greenwood wrote three of the seven songs and plays saxophone on the original track, “Here Comes Love, There Goes My Heart.”
Hays said Wednesday there are about 40 to 50 tickets left for each of Saturday’s performances at 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. Ticket prices are $48, $53 and $63. For more information and to purchase tickets, click here.
