Francesca Battistelli took home her first Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song for “Holy Spirit.” The song is from her 2014 album, "If We’re Honest," an album that netted three Grammy nominations. Battistelli, who is anticipating the birth of her third child, was unable to attend the 58thAnnual Grammy Awards, which took place Monday, February 15 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
“Holy Spirit” (written by Bryan and Katie Torwalt) spent 15 consecutive weeks at No. 1 and topped 5 radio charts simultaneously in 2015, becoming her third consecutive No. 1 from the album, If We’re Honest, following “Write Your Story” and “He Knows My Name.”
This Grammy Award win caps off an extremely fruitful awards season. Francesca was voted Female Artist of the Year at the KLOVE Fan Awards last spring, received her first Billboard Music Awards nomination, and received three more nods at the 2015 GMA Dove Awards.
