b. Martina Mariea Schiff, 29 July
1966, Sharon, Kansas, USA. One of the leaders in
contemporary country music, McBride has also won
converts within more puritanical country factions
for the respect she affords the roots of the music.
She and her husband sold T-shirts at Garth Brooks
concerts before McBride graduated to becoming his
opening act. The Time Has Come, her 1992 debut album,
impressed many with its cultured treatment of
traditional material such as "Cheap Whiskey" and "That's
Me".
