Amy Grant: The Christmas Collection
Amy Grant's top Christmas recordings bundled
with four new festive songs
Our pick for the season's best holiday music; all
your favorites plus some new songs that touch
appropriately on the lives we lead today in relation to
the holidays.
When you are not only a
Grammy® Award-winning and multi platinum-selling artist,
but also have three best-selling Christmas CDs while
selling over six million Christmas albums overall, what
do you do? If you are Amy Grant, you hand-pick your
favorites, record four new songs, and put them all
together in one special CD and digital release. Such is
the case with Grant’s The Christmas Collection,
which was released nationwide September 30th via Sparrow
Records/EMI. With over 30
million albums sold and a legacy firmly rooted in
holiday music tradition, The Christmas Collection
features songs hand-picked by Grant that result in a
classic Christmas album. Featuring the first new
music recorded by Grant in nine years, The Christmas
Collection features favorites including “Breath
of Heaven,” “Grown Up Christmas List” and “Tennessee
Christmas,” along with “Baby It’s Christmas,”
a song Grant
co-wrote with husband Vince Gill. In support of the
project, Grant will hit the road in early December for a
tour that will also feature Gill, bringing a festive and
nostalgic evening filled with her timeless holiday
classics.
Amy Grant’s career spans over 25 years and stretches
from her roots in gospel into an iconic pop star,
songwriter, television personality, and philanthropist.
Grant has sold more than 30 million albums and won six
Grammys® in multiple categories, beginning with the
platinum-selling Age to Age in 1982. She also has
six #1 hits, including "Baby, Baby," and "Every
Heartbeat" and is one of only two Christian artists
to be awarded a star on the legendary Walk of Fame in
Hollywood. Grant released her first live recording in 25
years with Time Again... Amy Grant Live in
September 2006, and then announced her first ever
label shift to EMI Music Group where her entire music
catalog was re-mastered and released via a Greatest Hits
CD and made available for the first time digitally.
