KARI JOBE RECEIVES FIRST GRAMMY® NOMINATION FOR
BEST CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN MUSIC ALBUM
CURRENTLY HEADLINING “A CHRISTMAS TOUR”
Kari Jobe has had an astonishing 2012 that has earned this premier female worship leader her first GRAMMY nomination for “Best Contemporary Christian Music Album” (Where I Find You). Since releasing her sophomore album Where I Find You on Sparrow Records in January, Jobe joined the Winter Jam Tour, released an acoustic EP and headlined her first tour this fall. To top off 2012, Jobe released a Christmas edition of Where I Find You and is currently headlining “A Christmas Tour” with special guest Warren Barfield.
“I feel so incredibly blessed in this season,” shares Kari Jobe. “God is such a good giver of dreams and more than anything, I am so thankful that God is using my music to help people draw closer to the Lord. It is so precious to be a part of the Kingdom of God in this hour. I’m beyond honored.”
Produced by Ed Cash (Chris Tomlin, Chris August) and Matt Bronleewe (Natalie Imbruglia, Josh Wilson), Where I Find You released with chart topping street week numbers at No. 1 and No. 10 on Billboard’s National Christian, Gospel and Top 200 Charts. The radio singles “We Are” and “Steady My Heart” saw much success at AC Monitored and Indicator charts as well as the National Christian Audience chart. The album also received much praise from a wide range of media outlets including theNew York Times.
“Few Christian-rock singers have more certainty in their voice, delivered with more brightness, than Kari Jobe does on her lovely new album Where I Find You”

“In a God honoring, prayerful, and passionate release that is equal parts intimacy and exuberant uptempo proclamation, exultation, and adoration, Jobe once again breathes her warm, sweet, pure pop/rock”
