Amy Grant Set to Hit the Stage in Corona, CA - Weeks Before the Launch of Her New Television Career

CORONA, Calif., July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the tremendous success of the inaugural concert series that kicked off with Lonestar and Olivia Newton- John, Stage 1 at Candlewalk is pleased to announce the second round in its concert series with five-time Grammy award-winning artist Amy Grant on August 13th, 2005.

By becoming the first Christian artist to have a platinum record, Amy Grant is widely regarded as the artist who put contemporary Christian music on the map. Yet perhaps her greatest accomplishment was to open the door for a flood of other artists in pop as well as rock to sing about faith, soul and family and still grasp mega-stardom.

With all the success in her music career, the multiple Grammy-winning recording artist is certainly not resting on her laurels - Amy Grant has now announced she will be launching a new television series on NBC titled "Three Wishes." Said Grant, "When I heard about this show, I was extremely moved by NBC and the production company's concept to provide incredibly positive changes in the lives of different people. Seeing the initial prep work the producers had done for the pilot episode gave me reason to look at my own life - and remind myself, once again, to never underestimate the impact that one life can have on another."

Stage 1 provides the ultimate audio and visual experience as it continues to focus on the philanthropic element. "It was so exciting for us to show that we could create this amazing venue from scratch and utilize it for charitable causes," states Mark Gantt, Executive Pastor at Crossroads Christian Church. Following the template set by the inaugural concerts at Stage 1, Amy Grant's concert will benefit Royal Family Kids Camp. Founded in 1985, Royal Family Kids Camp has grown to be an international organization, and the nation's leading network of camps for abused, neglected and abandoned children.
