Amy Lee Grant (born November 25, 1960) is an American singer, songwriter, and musician. She began in contemporary Christian music (CCM) before crossing over to pop music in the 1980s and 1990s. She has been referred to as "The Queen of Christian Pop".
As of 2009 she had sold more than 30 million albums worldwide, won six Grammy Awards, 22 Gospel Music Association Dove Awards, and her album Age to Age was the first Christian album to go Platinum. She was honored with a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2006 for her contributions to the entertainment industry and in 2022, she was a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors.
Grant made her debut as a teenager gaining fame in Christian music during the 1980s with such hits as "Father's Eyes," "El Shaddai" and "Angels." In the mid-1980s, she began broadening her audience and soon became one of the first CCM artists to cross over into mainstream pop on the heels of her successful albums Unguarded and Lead Me On.
In 1986, she scored her first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 song in a duet with Peter Cetera, "The Next Time I Fall." In 1991, she released the blockbuster album Heart in Motion which became her best-selling album to date, topping the Billboard Christian album chart for 32 weeks, selling five million copies in the U.S. and producing her second No. 1 pop single "Baby Baby" and produced another three top 10 on Billboard Hot 100; “That's What Love Is For," "Every Heartbeat" and "Good For Me."
She is the author of several books, including a memoir, Mosaic: Pieces of My Life So Far, and a book based on the popular Christmas song "Breath of Heaven (Mary's Song)" that she co-wrote. In the spring of 2023, Grant released two stand-alone singles "Trees We'll Never See" and "What You Heard." Both songs were her first new recordings since her bicycle accident and after she was inducted into the Kennedy Center Honors in 2022.
