Kathy has garnered numerous accolades with record sales reaching two million. She has enjoyed 17 number-one radio hits, 19 Dove Award nominations, 2 Dove Awards, and 3 Grammy nominations.
A highly sought after conference speaker and singer, Kathy has ministered to hundreds of thousands of women at various national conferences. She was selected in 2003 by the readers of Today's Christian Woman Magazine as one of the "Most Influential Christian Women in America."
Contemporary pop was taking center stage in Christian music and in 1982, after shopping for a record deal, the founders of Reunion Records decided to create their own record label to launch the musical career of an Italian girl from New York; Kathy Troccoli.
Kathy has come a long way since her musical debut, but her passion for sharing the Gospel and her life lessons through music has not waned a bit. She is celebrating 25 years of music and ministry. Kathy has 19 recordings to her credit, four of which she produced on her own label "KT Records," including the beloved worship record "Draw Me Close" in 2005 and "The Story of Love" in 2006.
"So many years were spent working and reaching and climbing," says Kathy.
"I was trying to find my place in the music world, but God has His perfect timing and a unique road opened up for me in the last several years." That road has led toward a vibrant ministry to women. Her effective communication style, poignant stories, and passionate music has blessed vast audiences. A new era was beginning as she became sought after as a speaker in addition to her musical acumen. She had more to say than could be communicated in a four minute song. Portions of her concerts contain very special times of heartfelt sharing of deep insights. Kathy is intelligent, funny, and raw. She bears scars that have produced a powerful and insightful communicator.
Kathy Troccoli holds a combination that is unique in the music and publishing fields. It is the diverse talents and circumstances in Kathy's life that make this possible. She has allowed both the successes and trials to mold her over the years, equipping her for a multi-faceted career. Kathy continues to travel the world speaking and singing of God's life and love. She partners with James and Betty Robison with Life Outreach International and has had the joy in co-laboring in projects in Africa, India and Central America, which serve the poor. Kathy has never been more fulfilled than she is now. "I am exactly where I am supposed to be. There is such freedom in that. Now I truly understand that my singing is just a part of what God has created me to do." And what is that? "Encouraging, motivating, and inspiring. What a privilege." |
