Amy Grant
Jun 3, 2013

Capping a week of media appearances including CBS This Morning, People.com, Morning Joe on MSNBC, and others, six-time Grammy winner Amy Grant visited the JOY FM (Tampa Bay, Atlanta) and spent two hours live, 5-17 on The Morning Cruise with Dave, Bill & Carmen. The morning show featured stories and songs from Amy's first full-length studio release in 10 years, How Mercy Looks From Here. Afterward, the trio and Amy hosted a front-porch themed CD listening party (complete with sweet-tea in Mason jars) for fifty randomly-selected listeners at a location in Tampa.
Listeners were treated to a meet-and-greet with the artist and a signed copy of the CD.
Consistent with the "warmth and intimacy" which characterize the songs on How Mercy Looks From Here, Amy shared personal stories of walking through dimentia with her parents, of family dynamics and of the "rebirth of creativity" she experienced in writing and recording.
