Amy Grant Set to Release "Somewhere Down the Road" March 30
NASHVILLE, TN…1/22/10…Six-time GRAMMY Award ® winner and 30 million plus selling artist Amy Grant will release “Somewhere Down the Road” on March 30th, a potent collection that takes the listener on a musical journey that reverberates with messages of resiliency, promise and hope. The 12-track set (full list below) includes four new songs, several previously unreleased tracks from her musical vault and a newly recorded version of “Arms of Love.”
Somewhere Down the Road reflects an accomplished artist at a time of renewed creativity and also echoes the life of a woman who is not afraid to write and sing about life’s most heart-wrenching moments as well as the sublime joys.
“There have been times in my life that I was sitting in the cat bird seat and everything was going my way, but currently, this is a time [with] a lot of uncertainty within my extended family as we’ve experienced pain, loss, and joy,” admits Grant who has dealt with aging parents and the loss of a close friend this past year. “This is the kind of record where it takes maturity to put out, so we went back and looked at old songs, unreleased songs, and new songs that fit together in a way that I think will make a really amazing and intriguing journey.”
“From a work stand point, I’ve had the amazing opportunity that anything I’ve ever wanted to try, for some reason, the door has opened. I love music as much as I always have, but I feel very contented when it comes to work. What brings the sizzle back to me is a great idea and it can be somebody saying, ‘hey, I have this idea for a song!’ As soon as they speak the words I go, ‘Ahhh, that’s great. We’ve got to sit down and do it right now.’ That’s how I felt about this project.”
