6 May
Summary
- Amy Grant's new album, 'The Me That Remains,' emerges from her creative sanctuary.
- The album addresses her health struggles and societal issues post-2020.
- She collaborated with various artists, including her husband Vince Gill.
Amy Grant's new album, "The Me That Remains," releases on Friday, May 8. The project was born from her "craftopia," a room dedicated to creativity in her Nashville home. This marks her first album of original music in over a decade, following a period of serious health issues.
Grant underwent open-heart surgery in 2020 and recovered from a traumatic brain injury after a 2022 bicycle accident. The album's title track, "The Me That Remains," directly addresses her healing process and determination to embrace life's stages. She initially faced challenges with memory loss impacting her songwriting.
She collaborated with numerous artists and writers, including her husband Vince Gill, to complete the album. Recording began organically in January 2025, with unexpected success leading to a full album. The songs explore personal themes as well as societal concerns, including a collaboration with Ruby Amanfu on gun control.
The album features contributions from Vince Gill, Michael W. Smith, and her daughters. "The Me That Remains" concludes a 13-year gap in new music for the artist, though she indicates new music may not take so long to emerge again.
