NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Five-time GRAMMY®-winner Steven Curtis Chapman earns 18th GRAMMY® nomination as Deeper Roots: Where The Bluegrass Grows receives a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Roots Gospel Album at the 62nd Annual GRAMMY® Awards.

“As a boy from Kentucky who grew up on Bluegrass music, to get to make a Bluegrass record with some of the best musicians in the world and have my dad, my brother, my son, Ricky Skaggs and Gary Levox sing on it with me…that was a dream come true. To have that record be nominated for a Grammy…I couldn’t even dream up something that amazing! I’m so honored and so grateful!” exclaimed Chapman. 

Deeper Roots was produced by Chapman and Brent Milligan, engineered by Milligan and Brent King, mixed by Milligan, King and Sean Moffitt and mastered by Brad Blackwood at Euphonic Masters. The homage to the Kentucky native’s rural heritage features a mixture of familiar hymns, fan-favorite hits and brand-new songs.
