The Franklin Theatre has partnered with independent artist management and publishing company Given Entertainment to launch a new songwriter series at the historic venue, starting Friday, April 27. The inaugural writers round will include Tim Nichols, Jimmy Yeary, Matt Wynn and Autumn McEntire.

The Franklin Theatre was established in 1937. After a complete restoration by the Heritage Foundation of Williamson County in 2011, it re-opened its doors as a state-of-the-art live music venue featuring performances by world-renowned artists.

“We’re excited to launch this new Songwriters Series at The Franklin Theatre with Given Entertainment,” says Franklin Theatre Managing Director Eric Dilts. “Since our reopening in 2011, The Franklin Theatre has played host to up-and-coming artists and music legends alike. Our Songwriter Series is an opportunity to showcase the storytellers behind your favorite songs in our iconic venue.”

Given Entertainment Founding Partner Cindy Owen adds, “We are honored to be asked to partner with The Franklin Theatre to create this new series. It’s the first of its kind for this beautiful historic landmark. We love any opportunity to shine a light on the songwriters and especially offering them another stage to share their music here in the heart of Franklin.”
