2015 K-LOVE Fan Awards: Natalie Grant and Husband Reveal Newest Star in Family [VIDEO]
Natalie Grant marked sixteen years in the Christian music industry this year, and Christian music fans love her now as much as ever. Nominated again in the 'Female Artist of the Year' category at the K-LOVE Fan Awards 2015, Natalie shared her excitement "just to still be on the list" of fan's favorite female performers.
In a new interview with BREATHEcast's Jeannie Ortega, Natalie and her producer husband, Bernie Hermes revealed that another member of the family has been capturing fans' attention in recent weeks: their youngest daughter, Sadie.
Asked how it feels to be nominated for the third consecutive year as a fan favorite, Natalie shared her excitement to be included in the award ceremony, stating "I've been doing it so long, and there's such a new crop of incredible new girls." Elaborating on how she felt about the event, she added, "And more than that [being nominated], we get to celebrate each other. I know people say that, but in this industry we actually mean it. It's authentic,"
And it might not be long before her own four-year-old daughter is part of the crop of 'incredible new girls' in the industry.
At a recent appearance, Natalie gave concert-goers a treat by inviting Sadie Rose on stage. Although the audience numbered in the thousands, Grant said her daughter "wasn't even phased" and told the audience she was "so glad that her mommy was on tour. With her." Sadie proceeded to belt out her own rendition of the classic song "Tomorrow" from the musical Annie.
Natalie remarked ruefully about her daughter's enthusiasm about performing on stage, "I think I opened Pandora's box."
