“Natalie Grant . . .
with her it just felt easy.
She is just that cool!”
You’ve had the opportunity to chat with
so many wonderful gals of faith in the
music industry. Who or what was one of
the most captivating conversations with
a female Christian artist that truly
surprised or brought you unexpected joy?
Plumb would be number one followed by
Natalie Grant. Both ladies are amazingly
honest and transparent. Plumb openly
shared her struggles with panic attacks and
going through a period where she felt like
she was too cool for Christian music. She
talks about surrendering those feelings to
God, which was around when the song ‘Lord
I’m Ready Now’ was released. She came back
to the Christian genre full force.
Answer
I interviewed Natalie Grant in person and
although I don't have a sister it felt like I was
talking to mine. There were no nerves or
stress. With her it just felt easy. She is just
that cool!
How do female Christian singers bring a
unique touch to their music and
messaging compared to male artists?
Many female Christian artists share
messages about our self worth as women
which we struggle with, and our beauty in
God's eyes. Such as “You Say” (Lauren Daigle),
and “Who you Say I Am” Hillsong. Songs like
“What a Beautiful Name” bring a touch of
femininity and beauty to God's love that you
may not hear from a male singer.
Answer
Interviews generally go in the direction
based on questions that I ask. With female
Christian artists I always want to know what
God is doing in their life, obstacles they've
overcome, managing the road and family
dynamics, and challenges facing their
personal value and being enough.
Are there common themes or essential
messages that female Christian singers
frequently emphasize in their interviews?
