NASHVILLE, TENN. (MARCH 26, 2021) – Amy Grant and Ellie Holcomb will appear on “The TODAY Show” this Tuesday, March 30 performing “A Woman,” the debut single from the FAITHFUL: Go and Speak album. Amy Grant, a six-time GRAMMY® Award winner, along with multi-GMA Dove Award® winner Ellie Holcomb will be joined by an all-female band, showcasing the exclusive performance from the historic Ryman Auditorium for a stunning tribute to women and God’s faithfulness. Along with the performance, Grant and Holcomb will join “The TODAY Show” third hour for a live interview to share about the upcoming project.

The poignant “A Woman” tells the the story of Mary Magdalene and God’s faithfulness in her life. The song was written by Holcomb, New York Times® best-selling author Ann Voskamp and artist Sarah Macintosh.

Earlier this year it was announced that the ministries of Compassion International, David C Cook, and Integrity Music were releasing the FAITHFUL Project, encapsulating a book, music, and livestream event. The album, FAITHFUL: Go and Speak, will release April 30. The FAITHFUL book will be available on May 1 and tickets are currently on sale for the FAITHFUL Livestream Event to be held Saturday, May 1. Click here for more information.

In addition to the TODAY Show appearance, Grant and Holcomb are part of the Gospel Music Association’s Easter broadcast special on TBN, Because He Lives: An Easter Celebration. They will perform “A Woman” on the TBN broadcast that will air Thursday, April 1, at 9:00 p.m. EST / 8:00 p.m. CST with additional airings to follow.

Today the pre-order / pre-save is available for the album as well as the single, “Rahab’s Lullaby (God Above, God Below).” The song features Sarah Macintosh, Rachael Lampa and Sandra McCracken, and was written by Macintosh, along with Ellie Holcomb and She Reads Truth’s Amanda Bible Williams.

MORE ABOUT THE FAITHFUL PROJECT: Coming to life in the winter before the pandemic, a group of well-known and respected authors and songwriters gathered as a community to write and share songs. Their work came to be known as FAITHFUL, songs and stories of God’s kindness to women throughout history and here with us today.

The FAITHFUL book is an eclectic collection of written stories, lyrics, photos, and art created and curated by some of today’s most distinguished and thoughtful Christian artists and authors. Amanda Bible Williams, Ann Voskamp, Ginny Owens, Kelly Minter, Kelly Needham, Lisa Harper, Raechel Myers, Ruth Chou Simons, Sally Lloyd-Jones, Sarah Macintosh, Savannah Locke, and Trillia Newbell, with an introduction by Amy Grant, gathered to create this keepsake book that celebrates God and the enduring legacy of women in the Bible.

The album, FAITHFUL: Go And Speak, shares songs from many of today’s renowned artists, songwriters, and authors. Each song on this special thematic album features a woman telling the story of God’s faithfulness throughout Scripture to the present day, and this collaboration between artists and authors has led to a collection of poetry and resonance through song. Artists involved on the album are Amy Grant, Ellie Holcomb, Ann Voskamp, Sarah Macintosh, Sandra McCracken, Ginny Owens, Leslie Jordan, Christy Nockels, Rachael Lampa, Kelly Minter, Savannah Locke, Sarah Kroger, Christa Wells, Tamar Chipp, Jess Ray, Janice Gaines, Trilla Newbell, and Taylor Leonhardt.
