A friend of Amy’s just sent in a new batch of images from the 2 Friends Tour and we wanted to share.  Amy is currently taking some time off, after one of the busiest touring years that she’s had in more than a decade.

We just got word that Amy and Vince have been named ‘Tennesseans of the Year’ by the TENNESSEAN newspaper here in Nashville.

CONGRATS AMY & VINCE!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Amy and Vince were honored to host about 20 families from the MAKE A WISH Foundation yesterday afternoon just prior to their final concert of the 12 Days of Christmas Tour.

Below are some pictures from this very special performance: Photos are courtesy of ED RODE.

If you’ve already finished shopping for YOUR family (or haven’t even made your lists yet), consider adding some with very REAL needs to your list…

The Compassion Christmas Catalog & Red Cross Catalogs are great ways for you to purchase specific items and make sure that they are given and/or used by a family in need. Amy  has been supporting both of these organizations for many years and these “gift catalogs” are some simple ways that you can join in.

BIG CONGRATS TO VINCE & AMY!!!!

We just got the news that they have been nominated for a GRAMMY award for their song “Threaten Me With Heaven” from Vince’s new album – ‘GUITAR SLINGER‘!

GRAMMY’s will be awarded February 12th in Los Angeles, CA.

Stay tuned for more details!

Throughout 2011, Amy and Michael, their bands, and a group of crew have been touring across the U.S. and the tour comes to a close next Monday in New Philadelphia, OH.  It’s been over 60 concerts of hits and memories.  We truly hope that you got to see this tour.  In the coming weeks Amy hits the road with Vince for the ’12 Days of Christmas’ Tour.  To view the final 5 days of the 2 Friends Tour and the 12 Days of Christmas Tour dates click here:  http://www.amygrant.com/tour.

For now check out these photos from the 2 Friends Tour. Taken in Nashville, TN on February 22, 20112:

Amy and Vince honored with the Joe Kraft Humanitarian Award.  The below video was played at a luncheon earlier this week here in Nashville!

Amy is currently enjoying the break in 2 Friends Tour dates and writing some new songs for a new album.

All of us here on Team Amy hope that you are enjoying your fall and we hope to see you on the road as the 2 Friends Tour continues – then on the 12 Days of Christmas tour with Vince!

We are headed home for two days off (over 20 dates still left on the 2 Friends Tour – hope to see you – tickets available:  http://www.amygrant.com/tour), but while I am sitting here at the airport I thought I would recommend some great new music to you. Switchfoot’s new record came out yesterday and is getting some great reviews. Also, “The Story” – a multi-artist collaboration produced by my dear friend Brown Bannister came out yesterday as well. Nichole Nordeman and Bernie Herms wrote all the songs for the project, which focuses on important stories from the Bible.

Nichole and I do a duet called “I’m With You.” And finally, LeAnn Rimes new record came out, which was produced by my sweet husband Vince Gill and recorded at our new home studio.
