Amy Grant's
House Of Love Expanded Anniversary Edition is
out today. Available in multiple formats, including (double) vinyl for the very first time with a signed and numbered insert, the LP includes 19 tracks: 11 original album tracks plus b-sides, re-mixes and a newly reimagined version of “Oh How The Years Go By” by Keith Thomas. It is also accessible as a double CD and digital album with 30 tracks including the the 19 mentioned above plus additional remixes, radio versions and newly re-imagined versions of “Helping Hand” by Tommy Sims and “The Power” by Keith Thomas. Track listings for all formats are listed below.
"Gathering the materials for this Expanded Anniversary Edition of House Of Love brought a flood of memories back to me," recalls Grant. "Those days were full of dreams coming true and lots of irons in the fire. A circle of extended family and friends helped us share the load of caring for our young family, planning a big tour and creating music that would be the follow-up to the magical time of Heart In Motion. We were managing the joyful chaos of life; riding a big wave and hoping not to wipe out. I love the songs on House Of Love and am excited to release all the music made in that time…the b-sides, all the remixes and the newly re-imagined versions of select songs."
A true goldmine for Grant fans, the anniversary edition features alternate versions of songs including “House Of Love” (Michael Omartian version) which was originally titled, “Any Amount Of Money” as well as “Oh How The Years Go By” (Keith Thomas Version). For the listener, these versions provide a deeper glimpse into how a song can develop over time and be interpreted differently by the two producers of the original album. Additionally, there are bonus tracks included that were ‘B-Sides’ of radio singles originally released in limited distribution or only available in certain territories but are now available in this collection including “Life’s Gonna Change” and “Politics Of Kissing.” Rounding out this edition are several remixes of radio singles, “Lucky One,” “House Of Love” and the incredible cover of the Joni Mitchell classic, “Big Yellow Taxi.”
Most recently, Grant and husband Vince Gill released When I Think Of Christmas, a treasury of seasonal songs that capture the spirit of their much-loved “Christmas at the Ryman” concerts. The album contains remastered versions of nine of their Yuletide favorites, plus two new recordings: “When I Think Of Christmas” (Amy Grant) and “’Til The Season Comes ‘Round Again.” (Amy Grant & Vince Gill)
Grant is currently touring across the country through November leading up to Grant and Gill's annual Ryman residency each December. All tour dates, tickets and more can be found at

ABOUT AMY GRANT
Amy Grant's career spans more than 40 years and stretches from her roots in gospel into becoming an iconic pop star, songwriter, television personality and philanthropist. With three multi-platinum albums, six platinum albums and four gold albums, her total career album sales have exceeded 30 million and over 1 billion global streams. Grant’s chart success has been consistent throughout her career with six No. 1 hits, 10 Top 40 pop singles, 17 Top 40 Adult Contemporary tracks and multiple Contemporary Christian chart-toppers. In addition to her six GRAMMY® Awards, Grant has earned 26 GMA Dove Awards (including four Artist of the Year Awards) and has been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame as well as the Music City Walk of Fame and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Conventional wisdom has it that Grant put Contemporary Christian Music on the map becoming the first Contemporary Christian 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. With that, her legacy as one of the most influential artists of the past four decades is assured. In 2020, the T.J. Martell Foundation – the music industry’s leading nonprofit to fund innovative medical research focused on treatments and cures for cancer – honored Grant with the Tony Martell Outstanding Entertainment Achievement Award at their annual Honors Gala. Most recently, The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts included Grant as one of their five distinguished Honorees to receive the 45th Kennedy Center Honors for lifetime artistic achievements. In 2023, Grant toured in 70 cities across the country and released her first new music in a decade, starting with the single "Trees We'll Never See,” (March) and "What You Heard" (April). Grant released “Lead Me On Live 1989” in October 2023 which is a full-concert documentation from the 1988-1989 Lead Me On Tour. Grant finished the year with two Christmas Tours including dates with Michael W. Smith as well as the annual Christmas At The Ryman residency with Vince Gill which celebrated over 100 headline shows at the Ryman, the first co-headliners to mark this incredible milestone.
In 2024, Grant toured the country playing 33 shows in the spring, including two headlining shows at the Ryman Auditorium over Mother’s Day weekend. She released the long-sought after “Songs From The Loft” album, (originally released in 1993), for the first time on digital formats. Grant is on a 20+ show headlining tour which kicked off in September and will finish the year with the annual “Christmas At The Ryman” residency with Vince Gill. Grant is also writing songs for her next musical project to release in 2025.
