1998 was the year Gil Grand left his home town of Sudbury Ontario Canada and headed for Nashville Tennessee. He could have never imagined that in a matter months he'd be signed to a major US record deal with Sony Music Nashville’s Monument Records. His debut album Famous First Words immediately gained the attention and accolades of the country music industry. He received three CCMA nominations including Male Vocalist of the Year, Album of the Year and Wrangler Rising Star. Before long Gil was on tour with Tracy Byrd and label mates The Dixie Chicks.
After enjoying the success of several top 5 and top 10 radio singles, the stage was set for the release of Gil Grand's second album entitled Burnin. Released in December of 2002, Burnin’ has become virtually a “greatest hits” album. Cry A Little, Break It To Them Gently, Never Coming down, Run and the title track Burnin all blazed their way up the charts and were mainstays on radio airwaves across the country.
The success of this record earned Gil 5 CCMA nominations including Single Of The Year, Socan Song Of The Year, Video Of The Year, and Best Album Graphics, with Gil taking home the award for Independent Male Artist of the Year.
In the summer of 2005, Gil Grand recorded his third album entitled " Somebody's Someone". Working with CCMA Award winning producer, Joel Feeney, he has put together his finest collection of songs to-date. In September, the album’s producers Gil Grand and Joel Feeney received the prestigious CCMA Award for Record Producers Of The Year.
Gil has recently moved to Nashville TN where he and business partner Randy Gee have launched "Grand & Gee Music Group" a music publishing company and recording studio.
