Two-time GRAMMY Award-winning and multi-platinum selling vocal powerhouse, Lauren Daigle, delivered a mesmerizing performance at the Recording Academy’s annual GRAMMYs on the Hill Awards, honoring the contributions of 9x GRAMMY Award winner Sheryl Crow in supporting music creators. Daigle captivated an audience of nearly 300 Recording Academy members, industry leaders, and members of Congress with her rendition of Crow’s chart-topping single, “Soak Up the Sun,” showcasing her exceptional vocal talent and artistry. Additionally, she graced the annual GRAMMYs on the Hill Advocacy Day, engaging with members of Congress to advance key legislative measures aimed at protecting the rights of individual creators from AI fakes through initiatives such as the No AI FRAUD Act and the No FAKES Act discussion draft.

In a remarkable achievement, Lauren Daigle’s single, “Still Rolling Stones,” has been officially certified Platinum, marking her 9th Platinum certified single. This milestone follows the recent 2x-Platinum certification of her 2018 album, “Look Up Child,” and the Gold certification of “Thank God I Do,” the lead single from her recently released self-titled album. Daigle’s unwavering dedication to her craft has garnered her two GRAMMY Awards, seven Billboard Music Awards, four American Music Awards, and twelve GMA Dove Music Awards, solidifying her status as a revered figure in the music industry.

Since the release of her GRAMMY Award-winning, 2x platinum-certified 2018 album “Look Up Child,” which included the 6x platinum-certified hit “You Say,” Daigle has been a mainstay on the Billboard charts, making history as the first female artist to simultaneously hit the Top 10 on both Billboard’s Pop and Christian Album charts. Her recent self-titled album, produced by Mike Elizondo, has further solidified her position as a modern vocal powerhouse, with the debut single “Thank God I Do” achieving Gold certification and securing her 6th Billboard No. 1.

Off stage, Lauren Daigle remains committed to promoting music education, working with at-risk youth, and providing care for children, the elderly, and those in need through The Price Fund, an organization she founded in 2018. To date, she has distributed over $2.5 million to 42 nonprofits around the world, embodying her dedication to making a positive impact beyond the realm of music.

Lauren Daigle’s unwavering commitment to her artistry, advocacy for music creators, and philanthropic endeavors exemplify her multifaceted contributions to the music industry and society at large. Her achievements continue to inspire and resonate with a global fanbase, cementing her status as a modern vocal powerhouse and a beacon of positivity and compassion.
