Amy Grant's career spans more than 40 years and stretches from her roots in
gospel into becoming an iconic pop star, songwriter, television personality and
philanthropist. With three multi-platinum albums, six platinum albums and four gold
albums, her total career album sales have exceeded 30 million and over 1 billion
global streams. Grant’s chart success has been consistent throughout her career
with six No. 1 hits, 10 Top 40 pop singles, 17 Top 40 Adult Contemporary tracks and
multiple Contemporary Christian chart-toppers. In addition to her six GRAMMY®
Awards, Grant has earned 26 GMA Dove Awards (including four Artist of the Year
Awards) and has been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame as well as
the Music City Walk of Fame and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Conventional wisdom has it that Grant put Contemporary Christian Music on the
map becoming the first Contemporary Christian artist to have a platinum record, the
first to hit No. 1 on the Pop charts and the first to perform at the GRAMMY®
Awards. With that, her legacy as one of the most influential artists of the past four
decades is assured. Most recently, The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts included Grant as one of their five
distinguished Honorees to receive the 45th Kennedy Center Honors for lifetime
artistic achievements.
