SINGER HAS ROOTS IN COLUMBUS

Music is a way of life for this New York born/Atlanta based singer, songwriter and producer, Angel Grant. Discovering a delight in singing at nine and songwriting at the tender age of twelve, this artist sailed onto the music scene when her demo found its way into the hands of mega-producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. The chemistry between the three led to her signing to Flyte Tyme Records in 1997. Her first single, “Lil Red Boat” was released in May of 1998 and her debut CD entitled “Album” was released a couple of months later on July 2, 1998.

Definitely ahead of her time, Angel was one of the first to set the trend of what we now know to be Neo-Soul. Her first single “Lil Red Boat” charted on the top 40 List and the accompanying music video was in heavy rotation on BET. Along with her printed interviews inside the pages of Cosmopolitan and VIBE, her appearance on Soul Train and live musical performance on BET’s Planet Groove won the hearts of many fans all over the world.

The positive music reviews and notoriety in Billboard, Interview and Trace Magazine only confirmed that this artist is undeniable. “I Wonder” marks her musical return for nearly a decade and make no mistake about it, Angel is back and her new CD is exactly what her fans have been waiting for. “I Wonder” is the first single to be released on January 26, 2010 and it is a record that reconnects you with the things you can never let
yourself forget.

For her self-written, composed and produced sophomore album, Angel taps into her eclectic and diverse musical influences with the freedom of an independent artist. This album solidifies Angel’s return to music leaving behind only the truest essence of her gifted songwriting, lyrical acumen, trademark harmonies and luscious
vocals. Listening to Angel’s new album you will hear elements of alternative folk and acoustic soul with a
sprinkle of rock riffs. She self titled her style as alternative folk soul.

Remember Angel Grant? The voice your soul will never let you forget and her sophomore album entitled, “My Journey Back” is a musical trip you take not for the destination but for the pure pleasure of its lyrical healing content, emotional charged harmony and melodic scenery. Enjoy the journey. While taking a break from music, she remained creative through other music industry avenues.

She developed and launched GrantGirl Inc., a hair and make-up agency that provides behind the scene service to numerous “A List” clientele, independent films and entertainment companies. Grant also had her own television show “Behind Da Lens” which ran for 3 seasons and received numerous awards and certificates. Angel is spreading her wings all over performing in Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Miami, New York, Detroit and DC. Experience the journey.
