Natalie Grant has a way of touching people with her powerful voice. Her latest song, "Hurricane," off her upcoming album of the same title, is a great reminder that God is always by our side- no matter how difficult the storm. "Feeling battered by the waves of your circumstances? God is reaching for you," she says."God knows exactly where you were an hour ago, where you’ll be tomorrow, and where you are now. You are not alone."
Often compared to powerhouse vocalists such a Celine Dion, Natalie has been inspiring listeners with her music for over a decade. Known for her signature songs like “Held,” “In Better Hands” and “I Will Not Be Moved,” Natalie consistently delivers a Christ-centered message, and has always been committed to putting feet to her faith by making a difference in the world around her.
After a life-changing trip to India, Natalie has made it her mission to combat international human trafficking through her work with Abolition International, which she founded in 2005. The trip also served as an inspiration for many of the songs on her breakthrough album Awaken (2005).
“God completely changed my life when I took a trip to India. I saw little, tiny children for sale on the street and I began to learn about the modern day horrors of slavery; human trafficking,” Natalie explains. “I knew I’d be wrecked for life after that trip, but I also knew that I could not stand by and do nothing, I had to do something.”
Natalie continued to encourage her fans with her album, Love Revolution (August 24, 2010), featuring "Your Great Name," "Alive" and "Human," among others. Each song is meant to motivate you to be the change you want to see. "When we live the love of the Gospel out loud, a revolution will occur," she reflects.
"Alive," was featured on the album Music Inspired By The Story, a record comprised of songs based on biblical stories from a variety of artists including Amy Grant, Chris Tomlin, Jeremy Camp, Matthew West and others.
Married to Christian music producer Bernie Herms, Natalie also treasures her role as a Mom to her three girls: Grace Ana, Isabella Noelle and Sadie Rose. “We were told we would never conceive and we had a less than a one percent chance of ever conceiving a child, so it’s been the coolest shock of our lives!” Natalie said to K-LOVE. “He (God) always has the last word in the situations of our lives, it’s not always the word we want to here, but in this situation it’s a miracle.” Natalie is also nominated for "Female Artist of the Year," for the first ever K-LOVE Fan Awards.
