How To Play Martina McBride Songs On Guitar

Martina has won the best female vocalist award from the CMA every year since 1996. She has been nominated for a Grammy 14 times but has never been given one.

She has had basically the same excellent live band for years, and they tend to stick to one arrangement on stage. From left to right its usually Martina's little brother Marty Schiff on acoustic guitar, then a woman on acoustic guitar, then bass player Glenn Snow who is usually standing behind Martina, then Wayne Dahl on steel guitar, and on the right side of the stage is Greg Foreman on electric guitar, sometimes with another electric guitar player. A variety of people have been in the electric guitar #2 posistion. Jenee Fleenor also plays the mandolin and fiddle sometimes

Because sometimes not all the guitars use a capo for a given song, or they have the capo in different positions, I have shown a column for each guitar. Note that this reflects what I see them do in concert. The album versions of a song may be done differently.

I am working on all of these songs at the same time, in pieces, so most are incomplete but they should be complete soon.
