Martina McBride
(born Martina
Mariea Schiff,
July 29, 1966 in
Sharon, Kansas,
USA) is an American
country-pop music
singer-songwriter.
She made her debut
in 1992 with the
release of her album
The Time Has
Come; however,
it was not until the
release of her
second album, The
Way That I Am, that
she first had a major
hit with "My Baby
Loves Me", which in
late 1993 peaked at
#2 on the U.S.
Billboard Hot
Country Singles &
Tracks charts.
She rose to stardom
in the late '90s,
starting out with a
more traditionalist
approach and
moving into pop-
friendlier territory.
[1] Between 1992
and the present,
Martina has
recorded a total of
ten albums: seven
studio albums,
a Greatest Hits
package, a
compilation of
covers, and an
album of Christmas
music. Of these ten
albums, two are
certified gold, and
seven are certified
platinum or higher.
To date, she has
also charted more
than thirty singles
on the U.S. country
singles charts. Her
biggest hit to date
has been "I Love
You", which spent
five weeks at
Number One in the
autumn of 1999.
In all, Martina has
scored six Number
One singles: five
on the U.S. Billboard
country charts, and
one on the Billboard
Adult Contemporary
charts. In addition,
Martina has won the
Country Music
Association's
"Female Vocalist of
the Year" four times
(tied with Reba
McEntire for the
most wins), and the
Academy of Country
Music's "Top Female
Vocalist" award
three times.
According to those
who know her songs
and her voice, she
has been called
"Celine Dion of
Country Music"
on account of her
soprano vocals.
[2] Martina has
sold over 16 million
albums worldwide.

True Beatle Fans I ran into Martina and John McBride at a 1964 The Beatles Tribute band at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center in Nashville a few years back. They seem to be very nice people. They can't be too bad, they are huge Beatle fans
