Amy Grant to release new album ‘The Me That Remains’ in May

Amy Grant will release new album ‘The Me That Remains', which is available to pre-order now, on 8th May 2026 via Thirty Tigers.

Produced by ten-time CMA Award winner and Nashville Songwriters Hall of Famer Mac McAnally, the project marks Grant’s first collection of all-original songs in 13 years. Leaning fully into her strengths as a songwriter, ‘The Me That Remains' finds Grant taking a clear-eyed look at where she stands personally, spiritually, and creatively today. Across its ten tracks, the album reflects on healing, connection, endurance, and grace, shaped by the life experience of a beloved musician now more than 50 years into a groundbreaking career.

Earlier this year Grant released ‘The 6th of January (Yasgur's Farm)‘, a meditation on unity and perspective inspired by the idealism of the Woodstock era, the album signals a more stripped-down, singer-songwriter approach that defines the project as a whole.

Today Grant has released the title track, ‘The Me That Remains', which serves as the album’s emotional centrepiece. Co-written with McAnally, the single reflects directly on the profound health challenges Grant has faced in recent years, including open heart surgery and a life-altering bike accident that resulted in a traumatic brain injury. The video was filmed on Grant's Tennessee Farm.

Visually, ‘The Me That Remains' album artwork reflects the album’s themes of memory and reconstruction. Grant commissioned artist Wayne Brezinka to create the cover as a mixed-media collage assembled from meaningful fragments of her life – including pieces of a quilt she has long treasured, seashells from her collection, her childhood Bible, and an article about her grandfather – layering her history directly into the portrait.

“The older I get, the more aware I am that we all live long enough to see versions of ourselves pass away,” Grant shares. “Given time to process decades of a life – one that was both exciting and difficult – I’ve needed to remember and release the younger Amy Grant. There are fewer bells and whistles around this deeper work now, but life’s discoveries and mysteries are even more compelling to me. I’m thankful for each day and curious to find connection and purpose, and how the Love that made us all will emerge and express itself in and through me today.”

Grant has also announced an album release show at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on 8th May. Tickets go on sale 27th February. Please visit Amy Grant for more information.
