GRAMMY ® Award Winning Singer/Songwriter, philanthropist and mother, Amy Grant will release her first new, non-Christmas music in five years with the release of She Colors My Day EP exclusively on iTunes ® the week of May 5 and in partnership with the skin care brand philosophy.

Grant will debut two new songs for Mother's Day: "She Colors My Day", a fun pop-song about a mother's love for her daughter, and the beautiful soul-stirring "Unafraid" which is a tribute to Amy's own mother. Available May 5 with a debut exclusively on iTunes ®, the 4-song EP also includes classic Grant hits "Baby Baby" and "Oh, How The Years Go By". The colorful music video for "She Colors My Day" will have an exclusive Amazon.com debut on May 12.

"I'm so glad to be releasing some new music," says Grant. "I've been working on a lot of new material and two of the new songs seemed to fit perfectly for a special Mother's Day release. ‘Unafraid' is motherhood from every angle -- partner, parent, caregiver - a perspective that every 40-something mom knows all too well. And ‘She Colors My Day' makes me smile thinking of how my own daughters brighten up my life."

Amy Grant and songwriters Cristina Carlino (philosophy founder and creator) & Stuart Mathis are donating all artist and publishing royalties generated by the sale of the song "She Colors My Day" to the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Women's' Cancer Research Fund.

Alongside Grant's EP, philosophy is partnering with online photo and artwork company Snapfish to create personalized books for Mother's Day. For each book that is created, Snapfish will donate 50 percent of the net proceeds to the "She Colors My Day" project, a philosophy non-profit initiative to assist in raising funds to create a cure for breast cancer. philosophy is also releasing a bubble bath in honor of the charity.

Amy Grant returns with a plethora of NEW music for 2010! Somewhere Down The Road is a unique album full of brand new songs, previously unreleased songs, re-recordings of classics, and rounded out with 4 of her best loved story-songs.

The theme for the album is stories & journeys. Amy has always been a great storyteller and many of her most impactful songs have come from her own journey as she sings about the honesty of life, it’s joys and struggles, and ultimately the hope she has found in faith and love. The songs on Somewhere Down The Road read like journal entries that will resonate with anyone who grapples with wanting answers to life’s toughest questions. Topics range from being honest with yourself & God ("Better Than A Hallelujah"), waiting for answers ("Be Stil"l), that those answers come over time ("Overnight"), and learning to listen to people before ‘fixing’ them ("Come Into My World"), assurance that you are not forgotten ("Arms Of Love" NEW RECORDING) and much more.

There is something for any Amy Grant fan on Somewhere Down The Road from brand new recordings, previously unreleased studio recordings, concert favorites that have never been released, and new versions of classic Amy songs.
