Amy Grant is an American singer-songwriter born in Augusta, Georgia, in 1960 who performs contemporary Christian music and pop. The album Age to Age established her in Christian music, while Heart in Motion reached a wider pop audience through songs including “Baby Baby” and “Every Heartbeat.” Her other signature recordings include “El Shaddai” and “That’s What Love Is For.” The Lead Me On World Tour brought the 1988 album into full-band concerts and was documented in a concert video. She later made Christmas performances a recurring part of her live work, touring holiday material with Michael W. Smith and presenting an annual series with Vince Gill at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium.
