Nashville’s riverfront Ascend Amphitheater is set to open July 30th, kicking off with a performance from seven-time GRAMMY nominated Eric Church. Church recently set an attendance record at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, and celebrated the Gold certification of debut album Sinners Like Me and the Platinum certification of recent #1 “Talladega.”
The 10-acre Riverfront Park will open on the same day.
“The newest addition to Music City’s live music scene will get off to a great start with a concert from Eric Church, who represents what’s great about Music City,” Nashville’s Mayor Dean said in a press statement. “His songs can’t be confined to just one genre; he draws from country, rock and other types of music that help make the scene here in Nashville so vibrant and eclectic.”
Church is expected to include a solo performance, performing just a guitar.
Featuring a diverse range of acts, check out Live-Nation-managed Ascend Amphitheater’s lineup for the 2015 inaugural season.
