Earlier this summer EMI Christian Music Group commemorated the multi-platinum selling “Lead Me On,” one of the most popular, treasured albums in Amy Grant’s spectacular 30 year history, with a 20th Anniversary two disc set.
This week, in support of these songs and season of life for so many who loved this project, Grant is launching the “Lead Me On” 20th Anniversary Celebration Tour” in Phoenix tonight, October 16th. About kicking off the tour, Grant had this to say:
“I am so excited to get this tour started – so much so that it’s even hard to express.
Being able to re-engage audiences with these songs, with so many old friends on stage is a dream come true.
As we’ve rehearsed, we’ve all felt the passion and inspiration these songs come flooding back, and we can’t wait to share that.”
• Featuring six of the original band members from the first “Lead Me On Tour,” Grant will make her way through 20 U.S. cities (see dates below).
• Following such, and in support of the newly released “The Christmas Collection,” Grant and husband Vince Gill will embark on a 15-date Christmas With Amy & Vince Tour starting Dec. 4, in Manchester, NH (also see dates below).
