Fresh off wrapping his First of Many Tour, Jonas Group Publishing artist Franklin Jonas and his band, the Byzantines, celebrated another milestone with their first-ever performance at the legendary Grand Ole Opry. Jonas marked the occasion with a debut performance of “High and Sad,” his collaboration with Noah Cyrus, and “Break the Levee,” adding another first to a season of meaningful milestones in his musical journey.
“We are incredibly proud of Franklin and excited to celebrate this unforgettable moment in his musical journey. From wrapping his first tour to stepping onto the Grand Ole Opry stage, it’s exciting to see these milestones unfold,” shared Jonas Group Publishing’s CEO, Kevin Jonas Sr., and father of Franklin Jonas. “We look forward to celebrating many more with him in the years ahead.”
“It’s hard to put moments like this into words. I’m continually reminded that things happen in their own time, and God’s timing is always greater than anything I could have planned for myself. I’m grateful for every step that brought me here and excited for what’s still to come.”
