New York, NY – Word/Curb recording artist, Jaci Velasquez, releases her highly anticipated and tenth national release, today. The Brit-influenced pop/rock album titled “Beauty Has Grace”, a celebration of Velasquez’s ten years in the music industry, is already getting rave reviews.

“Beauty Has Grace”, produced by Martin Terefe (Coldplay, Ron Sexsmith) melds Velasquez’s rapidly maturing modern pop/rock sound with meaningful, straightforward lyrics. Her first single, With All My Soul, is gaining strong momentum:

“It really caught on with me after just one listen!!! Could be one of her biggest hits in a long time!!!” – Jack Hamilton, Afternoon Drive Host, KBIQ-FM

The album is also being lauded in the press:

”...it’s the boldest, smartest Christian music artistic shift in recent memory.” – Christian Music Planet

”.. ‘When You Hold Me’ stands out from the rest of the album, thanks to Velasquez’s raspier vocals and tougher attitude. It’s got an Ashlee Simpson-meets-Alanis Morissette vibe. But in a good way! The songs here are spiritual and upbeat and a break from the sexually explicit tunes dominating the air waves!” – CO-ED Magazine

“Velasquez deserves big-time kudos for Beauty Has Grace” – Youthworker Journal

Many accolades can be acknowledged from Velasquez’s career including nine albums (four Spanish and five English), three of which went Platinum; 16 #1 singles; a Simon & Schuster book titled “A Heavenly Place”; a 20th Century Fox Theatrical release; TV appearances including CBS’ All-American Thanksgiving Day Parade and Hollywood Squares as well as multiple GRAMMY nominations, a Billboard Award for Latin Pop Album Of The Year (Female) for her 2003 Spanish album titled “Milagro”; American Music Award Nomination for “Favorite Latin Artist,” numerous Dove Awards and more.
