Dove Award and Grammy Award winning Christian pop songstress Francesca
Battistelli began her music career at a young age. When she was six years old,
the New York City native attended a Broadway performance of The Secret Garden
and walked away with her sights set on the stage. Both of Battistellis parents
were experienced theater performers, so her decision came as a surprise to no
one. Acting classes and dance lessons helped her form a solid work ethic, and by
the age of 15, Battistelli had earned a spot in the Orlando-based teen pop group
Bella. After the group disbanded, she attended a youth ministry and began
shifting her focus toward Christian pop music. The future Dove Award nominee
began learning how to play guitar, too, which helped her write her own songs.

Battistelli released an independent album, Just a Breath, in 2004. An EP titled
Im Letting Go followed in early 2008, marking her first release for the
contemporary Christian label Fervent Records. Later that year, the label also
released her full-length debut, My Paper Heart, which cracked the Billboard Top
40 and produced several hits on Christian radio. Her next album, 2011s Hundred
More Years, garnered even more success, debuting at number 16 on the Billboard
charts.
