AMERICAN pop and CCM star Amy Grant is to play three live events in the U.K. this Autumn. The confirmed venues are Manchester Apollo, The Birmingham Symphony Hall and London's Labatt's Hammersmith Apollo on 1st, 2nd and 4th October respectively, and follows the launch of her long awaited new album 'House Of Love', released by A&M and Nelson Word on 22nd August. The album described as "a less poppy, more mature album" than its platinum predecessor 'Heart In Motion' is being heavily promoted by A&M Records in Europe and Amy will be visiting Britain in August to promote the album on radio and TV. 'House Of Love' is a "love song album" though there are explicit references to her faith on the recording. In May Amy received America's prestigious Pax Christi Award, normally made to churchmen, for her efforts in promoting the Christian faith.
