Nashville, Tenn. (September 24, 2013) - Curb Records has announced that they will release a new single each Tuesday beginning today, September 24th, leading up to the highly anticipated album release of Hurricane from Grammy-nominated, five-time Dove Award winning Female Artist of the Year Natalie Grant. Fans can download the songs launched exclusively on iTunes for an early preview of the Oct. 15 project. The three tracks in the iTunes promotion include "For All Of Us" http://bit.ly/forallofus (Tuesday, 9/24), "Burn Bright" (Tuesday, 10/01) and "Closer To Your Heart" (Tuesday, 10/08). In addition, the deluxe album version of Hurricane is currently available for pre-order on iTunes at http://bit.ly/NATALIE.

Within hours of its release in May 2013, the lead single, "Hurricane" hit number one on iTunes (http://bit.ly/Hurricane1), and exploded onto the Billboard and MediaBase charts, making it the fastest rising single of her career. The record-breaking success of the single proves quite an accomplishment for one of the most successful crossover artists in gospel music who has maintained a strong foothold as a top selling icon in the industry.

Hurricane is a project that is woven together by songs that offer listeners a greater sense of hope, peace, and encouragement that come from Grant's personal 'Hurricane' experiences of her own.

"I really felt like a Hurricane was going on in our lives these past few years, and I wrote the songs on the album from the perspective that there is always a better day coming," Natalie says. "Along the way, I rediscovered myself, my art, and my faith and feel as a result, that I can honestly help others find the same."

2013 has already proven to be an exciting year for Grant as she continued Dare To Be, a revolutionary women's live event that drew tens of thousands of attendees across the nation. Grant continues to be an outspoken advocate for victims of human trafficking and founded the organization Abolition International in 2005 which is committed to providing quality restorative aftercare to trafficking victims both domestically and internationally. Fans can also look for Grant as she takes on a supporting role in the 2014 film "Persecuted." Produced by Gray Frederickson, an Oscar-winning producer who helped make "The Godfather" and "Apocalypse Now" and Directed by Daniel Lusko, Grant will co-star alongside James Remar, Bruce Davison, and Fred Thompson. In addition, Grant visited the nation's capital twice this year as a guest performer for President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, among others. Her most recent, was her performance at the "Let Freedom Ring" ceremony held at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington commemorating the 50th anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
