The University of Central Arkansas Reynolds Performance Hall welcomes Amy Grant on Friday, March 31, at 7:30 p.m. 

Grant has enjoyed a 30-plus-year adventure as a singer-songwriter, author, television host and speaker.  Grant is the first contemporary Christian music 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.  

Early in her career, she became instantly recognizable in both the Christian and pop music worlds.  Over the years, she has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide, including three multi-platinum, six platinum and four gold.  Her chart performance has also been consistent throughout her career, boasting six No. 1 hits, 10 “Top 40” Pop singles, 17 “Top 40” Adult contemporary tracks and multiple Contemporary Christian chart-toppers.  In recognition of such success, Grant has received six Grammy awards and 26 Dove awards, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a star on the Music City Walk of Fame.  She was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in Nashville and most recently became a Kennedy Center Honoree.    

Stepping out from behind her guitar, Grant found herself hosting the NBC primetime series “Three Wishes” in 2005, bringing her into millions of living rooms across America every Friday night. The people she met and the stories she collected proved to be great inspirations for creating new music and even writing a book. Two years later, Grant’s first book, “Mosaic: Pieces of My Life So Far,” was published. She continues to share her stories with audiences all over the country as a keynote and inspirational speaker.
