The Nine-time Grammy award nominee Natalie Grant has just released a cover duet of “Step By Step” with Dolly Parton. The inspirational song will appear on Grant’s new upcoming album, “Seasons”.
The incredible song made popular by the iconic singer, Whitney Houston, appeared on the soundtrack for the film “The Preacher’s Wife” and was dubbed one of Houston’s best songs.
This marks the first time Grant and Parton have recorded together, having shared the stage earlier this year at Dollywood.
“In 1996, ‘Step By Step’ is a song I would blast on cassette in my beat up Volkswagen Golf as I drove to my job at Medicare,” shares Grant.
“The dream when I moved to Nashville was music, not Medicare, but I had to do what was necessary to keep going. This song was my reminder to keep putting one foot in front of the other.”
Grant added, “If you had told me then that one day, I would not only be recording this song, but doing it with an International icon, I would never have believed it. I still can’t believe it.”
The release of “Step By Step” follows the much-anticipated announcement of Natalie Grant’s new album, Seasons, which will be available on October 6th and is now available for pre-order.
The 10-track album features Grant’s own twist on songs. She emphasizes that those songs have made a lasting impression on her life and her illustrious career.
