A masterfully stylish expression of story & song. American singer / songwriter Klinton Kraft seamlessly blends his passionate and inspirational message into a unique infusion of country, folk & bluegrass. Klinton’s debut LP, Live the Best Story, a total of eleven (11) passionate, heartfelt and inspirational songs, are being released as singles over the coming weeks.
His bold and courageous debut single, More Than Amazing Grace is available right now.
Sharing the story behind the song, he said ”I love Amazing Grace. I think it’s one of, if not the most powerful song the world has ever known. Whenever I hear it, or sing along, I’ve always felt it move me emotionally in both a sad and hopeful way.
When I announced that I had re-composed Amazing Grace into an upbeat celebration song, I definitely got a few raised eyebrows. I also got some serious skepticism and doubt that I should even think to touch that song – until I played it for them. So I pressed on and set out to create what I hoped would be the world’s most recognizable version of Amazing Grace, and decided to call it More Than Amazing Grace. Be bold and courageous and go all-in. So began the collaboration with my brilliant Producer and Co-Writer Nate Williams and this incredible group of inspired musicians and friends.
Many have said…”You actually want to remake the world’s most recognized and recorded song, and have that be your debut release and initial lasting impression? Really?”
Yes…and yes. It has been one of the greatest stories of my life. My hope is that all who listen to the song are as uplifted as I am to think about, feel and experience God’s grace in a whole new way. To feel it, celebrate it and smile while we tap our feet to this new celebration beat”.
