SUMMARY:Amy Grant
DESCRIPTION:Conventional wisdom has it that Amy Grant put Contemporary ChristianMusic on the map\, becoming the first CCM 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. Since then\, Grant has been strumming her way througha thirty-plus year adventure as a singer-songwriter\, author\, television host\,and speaker. \nEarly on\, Grant’s iconic voice became instantly recognizable in both the Christian and pop worlds. Over the years\, she has sold more than 30 million albums world-wide\, including three multi-platinum\, six platinum\, and fourgold. Her chart performance has also been consistent throughout her career\, boasting six No. 1 hits\, 10 “Top 40” Pop singles\, 17 “Top 40” Adult Contemporary tracks and multiple Contemporary Christian chart-toppers. In recognition of such success\, Grant has received 6 GRAMMY Awards and 26 Dove Awards\, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame\, and a star on the Music City Walk of Fame. Additionally\, she was most recently inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. \nStepping out from behind her guitar\, Grant found herself hosting the NBC prime time series “Three Wishes” in 2005\, bringing her into millions of living rooms across America every Friday night. The people she met and stories she collected proved to be great inspiration for creating new musicand even writing a book. Two years later\, Grant’s first book\, Mosaic: Pieces of My Life So Far\, was published. She continues to share her stories with audiences all over the country as a keynote and inspirational speaker. \nIn April 2016\, Grant celebrated the 25th anniversary of her first pop hit\,“Baby Baby”\, with a worldwide release of a new version of the song featuring pop sensation and fellow Capitol Music Group recording artist Tori Kelly. Growing her wildly popular Christmas brand\, Grant then released “Tennessee Christmas” in October 2016\, her first all-new Christmas album in nearly twenty years. She looks forward to national arena symphony Christmas tours each November and December with long-time friend Michael W. Smith\, as well as an annual Christmas residency at the world-famous Ryman Auditorium in Nashville with country superstar husband Vince Gill. \nGrant resides with her family in Nashville\, Tennessee\, and is widely known for her philanthropy and tireless involvement in local causes and charitable organizations. Her own organization\, The Helping Hands Foundation\, has afforded her the opportunity to identify needs around her and there sources to help meet them\, which has proven to be the sweetest reward of all.

SUMMARY:Three Dog Night
DESCRIPTION:Legendary band\, THREE DOG NIGHT\, now in its 6th decade\, claims some of the most\nastonishing statistics in popular music. In the years 1969 through 1974\, no other group\nachieved more top 10 hits\, moved more records\, or sold more concert tickets than\nTHREE DOG NIGHT. \nTHREE DOG NIGHT hits weave through the fabric of pop culture today\, whether on the radio where they are heard day in and day out\, in TV commercials or in major motion pictures — songs like “Mama Told Me (Not To Come)”\, “Joy to the World”\, “Black and White”\, “Shambala” and “One” serve to heighten our emotions and crystallize THREE DOG NIGHT’s continuing popularity. \nBoasting chart and sales records that remain virtually unmatched in popular music\,\nTHREE DOG NIGHT holds a Billboard Magazine record for releasing 21 consecutive\nTop 40 hits\, including 3 #1 singles “Mama Told Me (Not to Come)”\, “Joy to the World”\,\nand “Liar; the chart success drove 7 Platinum-selling singles and 12 straight RIAA\nCertified Gold LPs. The hits appeared on best-selling charts in all genres (pop\, rock\,\nrhythm & blues\, and country). Its records continue to sell around the world\, reaching\nbeyond the borders of the U.S. into Japan\, Canada\, Holland\, England\, Germany\, Spain and elsewhere. Tens of millions of THREE DOG NIGHT records have been sold through the years. \nCreated in 1968 by Danny Hutton\, THREE DOG NIGHT maintains an aggressive\, year- round touring schedule of over 90 dates a year\, performing their hit filled concerts for multi-generational audiences. The band’s now-famous name refers to native Australian hunters in the outback who huddled with their dogs for warmth on cold nights; the coldest being a “three dog night”.
