Early life

edit

Martina Mariea Schiff was born inSharon, Kansas,on July 29, 1966.[6]She has two brothers, Martin and Steve, who play in her concert band as of 2017, and a sister, Gina.[7][8]

McBride's parents, Daryl and Jeanne Schiff, owned a dairy farm. Daryl, who was also a cabinetry shop owner, exposed her to country music at a young age. Listening to country music helped her acquire a love for singing. After school, she sang for hours along to the records of such popular artists asReba McEntire,Linda Ronstadt,Juice Newton,Jeanne Pruett,Connie Smith,andPatsy Cline.[9]Around the age of eight or nine, Martina began singing with a band her father fronted, "The Schiffters." As she grew older her role in the band progressively increased, from simply singing, to also playing keyboard with them. She enjoyed performing in her early years.[9]

McBride began performing with a local rock band, The Penetrators, inWichitainstead.[9]Then, in 1987, Schiff gathered a group of musicians called Lotus and started looking for rehearsal space; she began renting space from studio engineer John McBride. In 1988, the two married.[9][10]

After marrying, the couple moved toNashville, Tennessee,in 1989 with the hope of beginning a career in country music. John McBride joinedGarth Brooks's sound crew and later became his concert production manager. She occasionally joined her husband on the road and helped sell Garth Brooks souvenirs. In 1990, impressed by her enthusiastic spirit, Brooks offered her the position of his opening act provided she could obtain a recording contract.[10]During this time, while her husband was working with country artistsCharlie DanielsandRicky Van Shelton,he also helped produce her demo tape, which helped her gain a recording contract withRCA Nashville Recordsin 1991.[2]

Music career

edit

1992–1995:The Time Has ComeandThe Way That I Am

edit

McBride released her debut studio album by RCA Records in 1992, titledThe Time Has Come.It was produced byPaul Worleyand Ed Seay. This album'stitle trackmade it to number 23 on the country music charts, while the next two singles both failed to make the Top 40.[11]Unlike her latercountry pop-influenced albums,The Time Has Comefeaturedhonky tonkandcountry folkinfluences.[2]

The Way That I Amwas McBride's second album. Its first two singles both brought her into the country top ten: "My Baby Loves Me,"the album'sde factotitle song, peaked at number two, and "Life No. 9"peaked at number six. The former was previously a Top 10 hit in Canada forPatricia Conroy.However, it was the third single, "Independence Day",which was prevented from reaching the Top 10 through the oppositions of many radio programmers, who objected to the song's subject of a mother fighting back against abuse by burning the family home to the ground.[12]"Independence Day" won Video of the Year and Song of the Year at theCountry Music AssociationAwards, and has since become McBride's signature song.[11][13]It also earned the song's composer,Gretchen Peters,a nomination for theGrammy Award for Best Country Song.The song also gave McBride a nomination for theGrammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance.McBride performed the song at the 1995 Grammys ceremony. The fourth and fifth singles fromThe Way That I Amwere less successful: "Heart Trouble" peaked at number 21, and "Where I Used to Have a Heart" fell short of the Top 40.[11]McBride later criticized these single choices, saying that she felt "Strangers" would have been a better followup, as that song was more popular with fans and later appeared on her first greatest-hits album.[14]The Way That I Amwas certified platinum by theRecording Industry Association of America(RIAA).

"My Baby Loves Me (Just The Way That I Am)," as produced and released, proved to have a sing-along quality that led McBride to sing it that way in her subsequent concerts.

1995–1999:Wild AngelsandEvolution

edit

McBride's third album,Wild Angels,was released in 1995. It accounted for another Top 5 hit in its lead single "Safe in the Arms of Love",which had previously been recorded by bothWild ChoirandBaillie & the Boys,and was concurrently released in Canada byMichelle Wrightat the time of McBride's version. The album'stitle trackwent on to become McBride's first No. 1 single on the country charts in early 1996.[11]The album's third, fourth, and fifth singles, "Phones Are Ringin' All Over Town", "Swingin' Doors", and "Cry on the Shoulder of the Road" were less successful, having reached the lower regions of the Top 40.

In early 1997, after "Cry on the Shoulder of the Road" peaked, McBride released two duets. "Still Holding On",a duet withClint Blackwhich was the lead-off single to her fourth albumEvolutionand Black's albumNothin' but the Taillights,[11]and "Valentine",a collaboration with pop pianistJim Brickmanwhich appeared on his albumPicture This.[15]She also sang duet vocals on "Chances Are" withBob Seger,featured on the soundtrack of the 1998 motion pictureHope Floats.

She had her second number one on the country charts with "A Broken Wing",the second single from herEvolutionalbum, in late 1997.Evolutionwent on to produce four more Top 10 hits at country radio: a re-release of "Valentine", "Happy Girl","Wrong Again"(which also went to number one), and"Whatever You Say".[11]Towards the end of 1998, the album was certified double platinum in sales by theRecording Industry Association of Americafor selling two million units. In addition, she also won the Country Music Association Awards' "Female Vocalist of the Year" award in 1999 and also performed for PresidentBill Clintonduring the same time.

Also in 1998, McBride released her first Christmas album titledWhite Christmas,which featured a rendition of "O Holy Night"that first charted in 1997 and continued to re-enter the charts until 2001.[11]She also sang a guest vocal onJason Sellers' mid-1998 single "This Small Divide".

McBride's sixth studio album,Emotion,was released in 1999. Its lead single, "I Love You,"reached number one on theBillboardcountry charts in 1999, and also crossed over to the Adult Contemporary chart. The song's follow-ups, "Love's the Only House"and"There You Are",both made the Top 5 at country radio, and"It's My Time"peaked at number 11.[11]

In 2001, she released her first compilation,Greatest Hits.This album has been certified 3× Platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America, and is her highest-selling album.[16]It included most of her major hits to that point, and the album track "Strangers" from the albumThe Way That I Am,which she put on the album because she felt that it should have been a single.[14]The album also included four new songs, all of which were Top 10 hit on the country music charts between 2001 and 2003: "When God-Fearin' Women Get the Blues"(at number 8),"Blessed"(at number 1),"Where Would You Be"(at number 3), and"Concrete Angel"(at number 5).Carolyn Dawn Johnsonsang backing vocals on "Blessed";[14]conversely, McBride sang backing vocals on Johnson's late-2000 debut single, titled "Georgia".[17]Late in 2002, McBride also sang backing vocals onAndy Griggs's single "Practice Life".[11]

edit

In 2003, McBride released her seventh studio album,Martina,which celebrated womanhood.[2]The first single, "This One's for the Girls,"went to number 3 on the country charts and became her only number-one hit on the Adult Contemporary charts. It also included backing vocals fromFaith Hill,Carolyn Dawn Johnson, and McBride's daughters, Delaney and Emma.[11]Follow-up single "In My Daughter's Eyes"was also a Top 5 hit at both country and adult contemporary."How Far"and"God's Will"both made the Top 20 at country radio, as did her guest appearance onJimmy Buffett's single "Trip Around the Sun",whose chart run overlapped that of" God's Will ".[11]

McBride works with a variety of charities. She has served as a spokeswoman for theNational Domestic Violence Hotlineas well as for theNational Network to End Domestic Violenceand national spokeswoman for theTulsa Domestic Violence and Intervention Services.Every year since 1995, she has hostedMiddle Tennessee'sYWCA,"Celebrity Auction", and it has raised nearly $400,000 so far. McBride was awarded the "Minnie PearlHumanitarian Award "in 2003. In 2004, she worked with"Kids Wish Network"to fulfill the wish of a young girl dying frommuscular dystrophy.[45]

McBride explained that educating girls and women on domestic violence is something she works on at home with her own daughters, stating:

A lot of teenage girls will be first dating and they'll think, 'Oh he doesn't want me to see my friends. He just wants me all to himself. Isn't that sweet?' Or 'Oh, he's just being protective. Isn't that sweet?' And then it turns into something else and it's controlling. They don't recognize that until it's too late. So it's an ongoing education that you have to give young girls, I think.[46]

McBride has also teamed up withLoveisrespect, National Teen Dating Abuse Helpline,working with them on a new program called, "My Time to Shine."[47]

McBride appeared on the Stand Up 2 Cancer Telethon in September 2010, where she performed "Unchained Melody"withLeona Lewis,Aaron Neville,andStevie Wonder.Also in 2010, she hosted the YWCA for the 16th consecutive year, raising over $50,000. It totals over $500,000 raised so far.

McBride also has a charity initiative called "Team Music is Love". Speaking about Team Music Is Love, McBride stated "It started a few years ago as a group of fans that asked me if they could wear a T-shirt with my name to walk in a breast cancer walk, and I said 'of course' and it has grown from there. Last year, we decided we wanted to give it a better name, a name that sounded as important as it is, so we changed it to 'Team Music is Love,' since it's about spreading love through music. We have done some amazing things over the past few years and we continue to grow and keep giving back."[48]
