Country music hit-maker Travis Tritt will release a special live 2-disc CD and DVD, titled A Man and His Guitar – Live From The Franklin Theatre, on Nov. 18. The much-anticipated release shot and recorded at the historic Franklin Theatre in Franklin spotlights Tritt’s distinctively soulful voice and his exceptional guitar prowess in an intimate theater setting. We spoke to Travis Tritt as the project was being filmed at the Franklin Theatre, see our video below.
The project features Tritt at his best, performing an unplugged solo concert that gives fans the rare opportunity to hear a fresh take on some of Tritt’s biggest hits, including “Help Me Hold On,” “Anymore,” and “Best of Intentions,” in a stripped down, pure form. Previously unreleased renditions of “Come And Go Blues” and “Pickin’ At It” is also included in the program.
Tritt’s discovery that an audience loved to hear him perform songs accompanied only by his guitar served as the inspiration behind the project. In this concert, Tritt acknowledges and pays tribute to artists he grew up admiring and those that were influential to him as he punctuates the release with personal stories and anecdotes from his long career. Select acoustic numbers and humorous moments between Tritt and his guests, Marty Stuart and James Otto, are also highlighted.
More than 25-years after he launched his music career, the Southern-rock-influenced artist continues to stay true and relevant to Country music fans across the globe. Last year, Tritt’s compilation album, The Very Best of Travis Tritt, continued a trend that started in 2014 by topping the SoundScan Top 200 Catalog Country Albums chart for 50 consecutive weeks with 15 weeks spent at No. 1 and 33 weeks notched in the Top Five.
The 2-disc CD set, A Man and His Guitar – Live From The Franklin Theatre, will be available for purchase through major digital retailers, TravisTritt.com and at various stops throughout Tritt’s tour including a stop in Nashville at the Bridgestone Arena on November 30, purchase your tickets online. The DVD will only be available at TravisTritt.com and on tour.
