ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Martina McBride

Martina McBride grew up in Sharon, Kansas, singing country music with her father's band before moving to Nashville in 1989. Her early recording career drew on traditional country, with The Way That I Am establishing a wider audience after her debut. Her work subsequently moved between country ballads and pop-oriented production, with albums including Reckless. The combination of a strong soprano and material centered on women's experiences became a recurring feature of her repertoire.
