With four decades of critical acclaim and popular success, Amy Grant has received countless industry awards. However, one of her biggest honors occurred just last week, as the singer-songwriter received her own star on the Music City Walk of Fame in Nashville, Tennessee.

Amy’s star was immortalized in Walk of Fame Park, a paved pathway near the Country Music Hall of Fame. There, she joins industry legends like Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton and her own husband, Vince Gill. This honor recognizes Amy’s contributions to the Nashville music industry and her work to nurture the city’s musical heritage.

“Amy Grant’s beautiful vocals and her messages of hope, love and faith have entertained and inspired millions of listeners for 40 years,” said Nashville Mayor Megan Barry. “Amy is in the middle of so many worthy causes and events, and I’m grateful for the work she and her husband, Vince Gill, consistently do to make Nashville stronger.”

In Inspiration’s 36 years of partnering with Christian ministries and leaders to create exceptional travel experiences, we have had the honor of working with scores of talented, influential musicians. Having sold more than 30 million albums in her career, few artists are as accomplished or beloved as Amy, which is one reason we are so excited about our Amy Grant Alaska Cruise this summer. Of course, our enthusiasm is matched by the many fans who have already booked staterooms for this unique week-long concert cruise. It truly will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, allowing Amy’s followers to interact with her in a new, spectacular setting.

Our team members were on hand for the Walk of Fame celebration, including President Steve Dick. “We’re impressed by Amy’s heartfelt commitment to her fans and are so happy to see her honored today,” said Steve.

We hope you’ll join us in congratulating Amy Grant for this honor—and we hope to see you in July!
