Grant has performed twice at Carnegie Hall and has won numerous awards, including two Grammy® certificates. In 2020, he was inducted into the Indie Music Hall of Fame in Hollywood. Critics have raved about his music, including:…
"lyrics and music as potent as Woody Guthrie ... A reminder of the darker period of Bob Dylan, and it’s that good, that memorable…”

Grant's song “Man Of Steel” was adopted by the National Veterans Foundation (www.nvf.org) as their official theme song. His single “I See You” was released with the support of Masterpiece Living, an organization dedicated to creating better lives for our elders. And a song he wrote, “I Reckon,” spent weeks on the MusicRow CountryBreakout charts. Grant's charming Christmas song “Fly Possum Fly” (featuring county singing sensation EmiSunshine) was both a radio single and a children’s book.
