So I'm working on a book that I hope will lead to being the next record.After tragedy strikes, can love blossom out of grief?Īs an emergency room doctor, 41-year-old Hadley Moore has spent a decade perfecting the art of shutting down her emotions to focus on saving lives. But working on this conversation with a very specific person who's now gone is bringing up a lot of elements that would make great songs. “I don't know that I really have ever written a group of songs around stories about people. She also says the book project could be the springboard for a subsequent album. And so I'm creating a book to continue the conversation, because she passed quicker than I thought she would.” They're all the things that she taught me as a kid-all this wit and wisdom. Her friend gave me the napkins and I photographed all of them. “She's the only babysitter I ever had,” says Grant, “and she taught me my love of poetry, grammar and writing. And if we see each other that way, then amazing things can happen.”Īs she awaits the return to touring, Grant is also working on a book based on messages written on napkins by her mother's late first cousin to a friend. It makes me know we're all woven together. “There's something about being in nature, you just decompress. “It's a very charming setting,” she says. One of Grant's current passions these days is working on her farm in Williamson County, Tennessee, that has served as a community gathering space in the last several years it has hosted a summer camp for kids as well as music therapy retreats that bring together military veterans and songwriters (She has documented the farm’s progress in a series of videos posted on her official Facebook page). I think that has enabled me to continue having a voice and some kind of influence.” It was that big-which is the still same music, still the same girl singing it. What gives me that leverage is the platform that came from that record. And honestly, at 60, I think about all the things that I'm able to do.that I get to be an influencer for change. “Without a doubt, even if I had never continued singing, what I experienced was a much larger platform than I ever had. Today, Grant recognizes how unique Heart in Motion remains both in her career and life. Being in a casting calling with all these guys coming in-I turned to the video director and said: ‘None of these guys would have ever ask me out in high school, and I'm getting the pick of the litter? I get to choose the guy that I'm in the video with?'” And I loved working with Jme Stein, the actor that we cast. “I look at myself in those videos: I was so shy for the camera. I walked in, and the stylist said: 'Don't ever wear that color of lipstick again.'” ( laughs) “I think I've done my own hair, makeup and clothes. “I've done a few videos, but never with the creative staff of A&M Records,” she recalls. Visually, the ebullient videos for the songs “Baby Baby,” “Good for Me” and “Every Heartbeat” brought out a different side of Grant.
