瑪蒂娜·麥克布萊德
美國女歌手
瑪蒂娜·麥克布萊德(Martina McBride),1966年7月29日出生於美國堪薩斯州Sharon(Sharon, Kansas, U.S.)。著名鄉村音樂創作型女歌手。
因寬廣的音域和高昂的嗓音被譽為“鄉村音樂界的席琳·迪翁”。曾4次獲得美國鄉村音樂協會獎年度最佳女歌手,3次美國鄉村音樂學院獎年度最佳女歌手獎。
Martina出生在堪薩斯州的小城Sharon,她的父親是一位農場主。在她很小的時候,父親的熏陶使她產生對鄉村音樂的熱愛,逐漸也愛上了唱歌。每當放學后,她會花上幾個小時跟著瑞芭·麥肯泰爾、琳達·朗絲黛、裘絲·紐頓、佩茜·克萊恩等流行鄉村音樂歌手的專輯唱歌。在八九歲的時候,她開始在父親組的樂隊"The Schiffters"中演唱,隨著樂隊的發展,Martina也從簡單的唱歌到開始演奏鍵盤,她很喜愛這段早期的表演生涯。
與丈夫John McBride
婚後,這對夫妻搬到了田納西州的納什維爾,希望開始真正的鄉村音樂事業。John成為了加思·布魯克斯的一名音響工程師,後來成為了他的演唱會經管人,Martina也會偶爾來幫助丈夫銷售加思·布魯克斯的紀念品。
1990年,布魯克斯被Martina的熱心感動,讓她在自己的首演中獲得一席之地,幫她獲得了唱片合約。在這段時間裡,John和鄉村藝術家Charlie Daniels和Ricky Van Shelton合作,但他依舊抽空幫助Martina製作她的Demo帶,這使Martina在1991年的時候獲得了與RCA Nashville Records公司的一紙合約。
1992–1995
《White Christmas》
《The Way That I Am was》是Martina的第二張專輯,這張專輯的前兩單都使她進入了鄉村榜的Top10,其中"My Baby Loves Me"取得了第二名的好成績,但三單" Independence Day"沒有如預期中進入前十,因為許多電台管理員反對歌曲的主題,但" Independence Day"依舊獲得了美國鄉村音樂協會頒發的“年度最佳音樂錄影帶獎”,也使這首歌曲的作曲人格雷·彼得斯贏得了格萊美獎最佳鄉村歌曲作曲獎的提名,Martina在1995年的格萊美頒獎典禮上演唱了這首歌曲。
1995–1999
1995年,第三張專輯《Wild Angels》的問世,使Martina得到了音樂生涯中的第一個冠軍單曲"Safe in the Arms of Love"。
1997年初,Martina分別和克林特·布萊克、金·布里克曼推出合唱歌曲"Still Holding On"和 "Valentine"。之後她推出了專輯《Evolution》,其中"A Broken Wing"使她又一次拿到了鄉村榜的冠軍單曲,還有其他四首歌曲也都進入了Top10,分別是"Valentine",、"Happy Girl"、 "Wrong Again" (同樣拿到冠單)和 "Whatever You Say"。

1999年,Martina也獲得了鄉村音樂協會獎頒發的“年度最佳女歌手”榮譽,同年為時任美國總統比爾·柯林頓表演。
1999–2003
Martina的第五張個人專輯《Emotion》於1999年面世,它的打榜單曲"I Love You"成為告示牌鄉村榜單第一位,並且進入成人抒情榜單,隨後其他歌曲也取得了不錯的成績, "Love's the Only House" 和"There You Are"都在鄉村電台榜中進入Top10.
《Greatest Hits》
2003–2005
2003年,為了慶祝她邁入的新階段,Martina推出了第六張個人專輯《Martina》。第一單曲"This One's for the Girls"在鄉村榜上排名第3,在成人抒情榜上成為她第一支冠軍單曲。這張專輯的和聲部分由Faith Hill、Carolyn Dawn Johnson還有Martina的小女兒們Delaney和Emma完成。單曲 "In My Daughter's Eyes"同時進入鄉村榜和成人抒情榜的Top5,另外還有"How Far"以及" God's will"同樣取得了不錯的成績。
2004年,Martina第四次獲得由美國鄉村音樂協會頒發的“年度最佳女歌手獎”,其他三次分別在1999,2002,2003年,平了瑞芭·麥肯泰爾對這一項榮譽保持的記錄。
2005–2008
《Waking up laughing》
2006年,Martina擔任“加拿大偶像”的評委
2007年,Martina推出了第八張專輯《Waking Up Laughing》,主打歌"Anyway"獲得了告示牌鄉村榜第五名的好成績,也成為2003年以來她的第一首Top10.
