(MORRISTOWN, NJ) -- Six-time GRAMMY® Award and 26-time GMA Dove Award winner Amy Grant comes to Mayo Performing Arts Center on Thursday, October 8, 2025 at 7:30pm.  Grant's career spans more than 40 years and stretches from her roots in gospel into becoming an iconic pop star, songwriter, television personality, philanthropist and has become as some have dubbed her, "The Queen Of Christmas" with her millions of Christmas albums sold over the years.

With three multi-platinum albums, six platinum albums and four gold albums, her total career album sales have exceeded 30 million and over 1 billion global streams. Grant’s chart success has been consistent throughout her career with six No. 1 hits, 10 Top 40 pop singles, 17 Top 40 Adult Contemporary tracks and multiple Contemporary Christian chart-toppers.

In addition to her six GRAMMY® Awards, Grant has earned 26 Dove Awards (including four Artist of the Year Awards) and has been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame as well as the Music City Walk of Fame and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Conventional wisdom has it that Grant put Contemporary Christian Music on the map becoming the first Contemporary Christian 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. With that, her legacy as one of the most influential artists of the past four decades is assured.

Tickets range from $57-$109 (all fees included) and are available for purchase online or by calling the Box Office at (973) 539-8008. Mayo Performing Arts Center is located at 100 South Street in Morristown, New Jersey.

In 2022, The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts included Grant as one of their five distinguished Honorees to receive the 45th Kennedy Center Honors for lifetime artistic achievements. In 2020, the T.J. Martell Foundation – the music industry’s leading nonprofit to fund innovative medical research focused on treatments and cures for cancer – honored Grant with the Tony Martell Outstanding Entertainment Achievement Award at their annual Honors Gala.

Amy has established herself as an iconic ‘Christmas’ artist as well with not only millions of Christmas albums sold, but also her annual Christmas Tours with the likes of Michael W. Smith, Marc Martel, Jordan Sparks and many others.  Additionally, for the past 19 years, Amy and her husband Vince Gill, perform an annual two-week residency at the legendary Ryman Auditorium in Nashville with their ‘Christmas At The Ryman’ shows.

In 2023, Grant released her first new music in a decade, including the singles "Trees We'll Never See” and "What You Heard."  Late that year she also released “Lead Me On Live 1989,” a full-concert documentation from the 1988-1989 Lead Me On Tour. In 2024, Amy has continued on the road performing in more than 60 cities across the country.
