Francesca Battistelli (Nashville, TN) – May 30, 2008 – For those of you who have heard the fresh new single from Fervent Records’ artist Francesca Battistelli, “I’m Letting Go,” you know why there is a huge buzz. If you haven’t heard it yet, turn up your radio and get ready to let yourself go!

RADIO
In just four weeks, 64 reporting stations have added the hot single to their rotation. “I’m Letting Go” is already Top 20 at CHR and AC Indicator, while it debuted at AC Monitored this week, garnering the highest spin increase of the week. In addition to the significant airplay, more and more radio stations are continuing to sing praises for this hit song:

KSBJ’s Jim Beeler - “This song is up, it has something to say, and it’s as fun as saying her name!”

WBFJ’s Wally Decker - "I would say that this is hands-down the best CD (cover to cover) by a female vocalist in years! There is not a weak tune on this album."

WONU’s Johnathon Eltrevoog - “Sounding GREAT on the air. So glad I added this song! Great to have something fresh, especially with such a great female singer.”

EP/iTunes
As well as the incredible radio buzz, last week Fervent Records released the I’m Letting Go – EP. It made its debut at the #2 spot on iTunes’ Christian & Gospel page, selling more than 800 units in just one week! Four songs appear on the EP – “I’m Letting Go,” “Free To Be Me,” “Beautiful, Beautiful,” and “It’s Your Life.” Along with the #2 debut, the EP was positioned on iTunes’ sought after homepage section “What’s Hot”.

Battistelli is booked by The Greg Oliver Agency (goa-inc.com), and is managed by Steve Blair of Blair Artist Management (myspace.com/blairartistmanagement). For more information about Francesca Battistelli, please visit:
