Amy Grant’s husband, Vince Gill, has canceled future gigs this weekend due to a bicycle accident that sent the singer to the hospital. Grant, who will receive the Kennedy Center Honors later this year, crashed while bicycling in Nashville on Wednesday. She was taken in an ambulance to a neighboring hospital, where she received care for her wounds. There were no reported serious injuries, and her health was listed as stable.
What happened to Amy Grant?
One of the most significant musicians in contemporary Christian music, is the singer. Her self-titled album was a significant release in 1977, and in 1985 her impact expanded to include pop music. Find a Way, Baby Baby, and Every Heartbeat are a few of her top songs. Grant was taken to the hospital on Wednesday in Nashville after collapsing while riding a bicycle (July 27th). She was taken by EMS to Vanderbilt Medical Center, where cuts and abrasions were attended to. Grant was wearing a helmet and did not sustain any serious wounds, but he was admitted for observation as a precaution. His condition was described as stable.
What did Vince Gill post?
A social media message reads, “Thank you to everybody who offered prayers and good thoughts for Amy after her bike crash yesterday. She is receiving treatment at the hospital and is in stable condition. Later this week, she is anticipated to return home. Where she will continue to recover. Your thoughtful prayers and good words. Are felt and accepted. We would like to advise everyone to wear helmets, as Amy was!

The Honors Gala has been a staple of the Washington social and cultural scene for 44 years, and its national broadcast on CBS is a highlight of the fall television season.
