She started singing in her dad's band when she was seven years old. Martina sang ''I'm Little But I'm Loud,'' and she wowed audiences even at that early age. Her early years in Kansas were all about country music, but as a teenager, she drifted from the family band. Martina was fascinated by the rock sounds of Pat Benatar and Chrissy Hines. She sang her heart out in smoky bars until her throat began to hurt. Doctor's said she was on the verge of damaging her most precious asset - her lovely, strong voice.

Customer Reviews

Enjoyable profile of a modern country music legend
This is a thoroughly engaging portrait of country music singer Martina McBride. Unfortunately, because it is an episode of the A&E "Biography" series, it is only 50 minutes long. Nevertheless, the portrait fills its limited time with good coverage of her life and career, and her interactions with her husband, John, that are caught by the filmmakers are enough to make any fan want to purchase this DVD. The DVD does a good job of highlighting McBride's career as well as her commitment to her family and how she balances the two. Overall, one comes away with the impression that she is a talented yet down-to-earth woman, who deserves her reputation as one of the nicest members of the country music community.

Awesome detail of today's queen of country music
Yes it was less than an hour long, however, it is so interesting to see how Martina McBride started out her illustrious career without the help of a show such as American Idol. She truly is the most down to earth and humble human being in her industry with killer vocals and a purity in her voice like no other. Not too many female artists in country music or any genre can pull this off. Very worth the buy!

50 minutes !!!! what a rip
All i can say is too short for a woman that has been recording for soo long
