(AUDIO) MARTINA McBRIDE DISCUSSES HER STYLE ICONS

Martina McBride enjoys trying out edgy styles and fashions when she’s on stage, and she says some other performers whose style she admires include Steven Tyler and Mick Jagger.  She says, “People like Steven Tyler, I mean he’s always, he always looks like Steven Tyler.  I mean, for rehearsal, when I went over and rehearsed the song in his studio, it was just like- wow – he’s always just a rock star, you know.  And Mick Jagger.  I always tend to go for something a little edgier.”

 

Martina has always gone for bolder, stronger styles on stage because she says, “I sing a lot of songs that I want to feel really strong when I’m singing and sort of plant my feet and sing big and powerful.  So, I’ve never been able to really wear little dresses on stage and things like that.  So, yeah, I’ve always gone for more of an edgier look.”

 

Martina’s new single, “Just Around the Corner,” is a perfect example of strong, inspiring song.  It’s been chosen by the Sarah Cannon Institute as the theme song for their new campaign to promote BandAgainstCancer.com.
