My dad was a huge country music fan, but he also had a band and he sang. So hed listen to a lot of music and the songs that hed learn for the band were more from the male artists. So my earliest country memories were Waylon Jennings, Conway Twitty, George Jones, Johnny Paycheck even. – Martina McBride

I was into all kinds of music as a teen – country music, because my dad was in a band that played country, and whatever my sister and brother were into. – Martina McBride
