Martina McBride Launches New Podcast 'Vocal Point with Martina McBride'

Launched as part of Luminary's fall podcast line-up and produced by Believe Entertainment Group, "Vocal Point with Martina McBride" is set for premiere on Friday, September 27th. The country music powerhouse and lifestyle influencer is sitting down with A- List friends from across all genres including musicians, celebrity chefs, actors and anyone with a story to tell.

"I wanted to do a podcast that's not really an interview as much as it is a conversation," says McBride. She continues, "I hope it's entertaining for the listeners and also that it gives a little bit of insight into the person that I'm interviewing. We talked about their life philosophy, their struggles and how they've overcome them. A lot of it has been so inspiring as well as entertaining."

For the premiere episode of "Vocal Point with Martina McBride," McBride sits down with longtime friend and fellow Country musician, Garth Brooks, for a candid conversation on life in the limelight and how he has navigated fame and his impactful career. Other guests throughout the season include Lauren Alaina, Pam Tillis, Dustin Lynch, Rosanne Cash, Sara Evans, Don Was, Brenda Lee, Runaway June, Howie Mandel and Loretta Lynn.

"Vocal Point with Martina McBride" launches Friday, September 27th and listeners can tune-in weekly via luminarypodcasts.com.
