Tammy
Trent
Tammy's story is one of despair and unexpected grace. In September
2001 she and her husband, Trent (from whom her stage name comes from),
spent a few days in Jamaica - part mission trip, part vacation. On September
10th, Trent went diving and never returned. Tammy spent the rest of
the day with rescue divers trying to locate her husband with no success.
She woke up the next morning in the home of strangers to discover that
the whole world had gone mad. As she waited for news of her husband,
she watched the news as two planes plowed into the Twin Towers in New
York City - later that day she had to identify the body of her husband.
No one in her family could get to her as flights were canceled. She
was held captive in Jamaica for ten more days waiting to return to her
family.
Tammy's story of God's grace in the midst of such pain, fear and loss
touches everyone she ministers to. It is one thing to call the Lord
shepherd - it is another to be carried by Him when you can no longer
stand. Tammy is constantly amazed by our Lord's commitment to us in
the worst moments of our lives.
Tammy signed her first major record deal in 1995 and has followed that calling
on her life with great passion ever since. With the national release
of 3 CD's that have garnered three number 1 hits ("My Irreplaceable"
"Your love is 4 Always" & "It's all about You") and a handful of top
ten hits, including her signature songs "Welcome Home" & "Run to the
Cross", Tammy continues to sing her way through to the hearts of thousands.

She just completed her highly anticipated new music release, "I SEE
BEAUTIFUL", produced by Tim Miner, Tammy Trent and John Mandeville.
This is her first full CD in over 5 years and will hit stores everywhere
August 1st, 2006. Tammy also just wrapped up her first music video off
the new project, "At the Foot of the Cross" which will premier on the
Gospel Music Channel September 11th. Watch for "At the Foot of the Cross" to air everywhere soon after.
Her life is real. Her music is real. Her words are real and her God
is real. You see it in everything she does. Why? How? Because she knows
what it's like to have the wind knocked out of you and yet to feel the
very breath of God bringing you back to life again. An evening spent
with Tammy is like one big living room, just hanging out with your friends.
That is her gift to the world. Letting you in, making you feel comfortable
and then sharing her God, her faith and her hope in one of the most
authentic, tender and humorous ways.
You'll find Tammy with a full touring schedule including dates on the Women of Faith Tour and the Revolve Tour, which is for teen girls sponsored by Women of Faith. June 2005 marked the National release of her second book, "Beyond The Sorrow", published by J Countryman, which follows in the footsteps of her best-selling book "Learning to Breathe Again" by W Publishing.
