Linna Martinez: Reina De La Musica Tejana Idaho

http://www.linnamartinez.com/

El mundo latino en los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica incluyendo los Estados de Texas e Idaho está de fiesta. La razón es la llegada de un artista con su granito de arena hacia la música tejana: Linna Martínez.

Linna Martínez merece ser elogiada por mantener sus raíces tejanas a pesar de haber nacido y criado en Blackfoot Idaho. Ella vio la luz en ese bendito pueblo el 3 de agosto de 1980.

Linna Martínez [desde pequeña] aprendió la música tejana de sus antepasados y comenzó su carrera como cantante. Linna Martínez grabo su primer disco “Sin Explicación” a la edad de 15 años en Edinberg, Texas.

Linna Martínez cosecho éxitos con su primer disco y regreso a Idaho para formar el conjunto “Estilo”. Ella hizo conciertos de música tejana con “Estilo” y la respuesta fue aplausos y alabanzas hacia la joven cantante.

En el año 2004, Linna Martínez regreso a Texas para grabar su segundo álbum con el título “Corazoncito”. Ella grabo el álbum en la ciudad de San Antonio en el mismo estado.

La respuesta hacia “Corazoncito” fue abrumadora en el mundo tejano. Linna Martínez acepto ofertas para promover el álbum en distintos lugares en Texas incluyendo la TTMA Conciertos de los que Apoyan la Música.

Durante su carrera musical, Linna Martínez soñaba [como cualquier artista] tener una familia. Es algo intrínseco en la vida de un ser humano pues como dice la canción “El Ídolo” [Teenage Idol] interpretado por los cantantes Luis Bravo [Español] y Ricky Nelson [Ingles], las mejores glorias es tener una familia.

Linna Martínez se alejo del escenario para criar una familia y tener esa paz con tranquilidad.  Después de un tiempo, Linna Martínez comenzó el año 2011 firmando con la casa disquera Q-Vo de Chente Barrera para grabar su último álbum “Enamorada”.

He tenido el honor en escuchar este álbum con ideas frescas con un estilo de Tejano/Idaho. El álbum trataba de los varios aspectos de amor como la despedida, estar enamorado/a, y viviendo la vida.

Las canciones preferidas del autor en este álbum son “Enamorada” que se trata del amor y “Cada Día Te Extraño Mas”. “Enamorada” se trata de una decepción amorosa pero existe el fondo alegre para achicar la herida.

La canción “Cada Día Te Extraño Mas” es una canción de una pareja separada por la distancia y/o la ruptura. Es una canción que me hace pensar en aquellos tiempos cuando extraño algo o alguien que quiero [o quería] en un pasado.

Linna Martínez es un artista que merece todo lo mejor en el mundo por su trayectoria. Por eso y mucho mas, Linna Martínez es la Reina De La Música Tejana/Idaho y su álbum “Enamorada” merece un 100% en mi escala musical.

Linna Martinez: Queen of Idaho Tejano Music

The world of Tejano Music is celebrating with the arrival of Linna Martinez and her new album titled “Enamorada” or “Falling In Love”. The people of Texas, Idaho, and the world cannot get enough of Linna Martinez and her Idaho Flavored Tejano Music.

What is the driving force behind Linna Martinez? The answers lie in her life story and review of her musical career.

Linna Martinez was born in Blackfoot, Idaho on August 3, 1980 to parents from South Texas. The grandparents of Miss Martinez are also from South Texas. The basis for her music originated in the roots of southern Texas.

Ms. Martinez excelled in everything she put her mind into and decided that the time was ripe for a musical career. Linna Martinez recorded her first album titled “Sin Explicacion” or “Without Explanation” at the age of 15 in the town of Edinberg, Texas.

She was inspired after the recording to return to Idaho and form the band known as “Estilo”. Linna Martinez and the band toured Idaho and played at different venues within the state.

Linna Martinez was able to capitalize on her success in Idaho and return to record her second album titled “Corazoncito” or “Little Heart”. She recorded her second album in San Antonio, Texas in the year 2004.

The album was another success with Linna Martinez and Estilo performing in different venues around San Antonio, Texas. Ms. Martinez even performed at the TTMA Fan Fair Performance with people praising her Idaho flavored Tejano Music.

While “Corazoncito” was a great success, something was missing in the life and times of Linna Martinez. Ms. Martinez took time off to become a mother and raise a family.

In the year 2011, Linna Martinez signed a record deal with Q-Vo Records which is owned by the famed Tejano artist Chente Barrera. Ms. Martinez went to work recording her latest album “Enamorada”. The CD “Enamorada” became another huge success for Linna Martinez.

I had the pleasure and honor of listening to “Enamorada” and the songs are great. The song “Cada Dia Te Extrano Mas” or “Every Day I Miss You” is a gem which deals with separation and how it brings together the hearts of those who suffer from it.

Linna Martinez is one of the greatest musicians in the world who deserves praise for her music. Linna Martinez via her music and personality has earned the title of Queen of Idaho Tejano Music.

Linna Martinez: A Rising Tejano Star Fom Idaho

I have interviewed artists from many parts of the USA and have enjoyed the conversations as well as the music. Linna Martinez inspired me with her music as well as her style of Tejano Music based in her place of birth Idaho.

I invited her for an interview and she accepted gracefully. The rest is the history of the rising star of Tejano Music.

 

You were born and raised in Idaho. How were you able to apply Tejano Music in your life and career?

 1.   I was born and raised in Idaho, but my great grand parents down to my parents are all from the Great state of Texas. With their knowledge and culture instilled from the great state of Texas, they planted the “seeds” within me that grew into these roots of “Tejano”

 

What gave you the inspiration to become a singer of Tejano Music?

      2. I first heard of “Tejano” music at the young age of three. My first inspiration was “la reina de la musica tejana”, Laura Canales. Along with her inspirational songs and the musical background of my family, I knew then i wanted to be a singer.

 

What were you feelings when you recorded your first CD “Sin Explicacion”?

 3.   Recording my first CD ” Sin Explicacion” was a new challenge for me. I knew nothing about recording studios or the Tejano music industry as an artist. But the feeling of having my very first recording done was the start of my singing career.

 

How long did it take to record and complete “Sin Explicacion”?

 4.   I worked very hard for a month to complete that very first project. At the completion of “Sin Explicacion”, I knew I couldn’t stop at just one project, which started the thinking process for “Corazoncito”!

 

How was Estilo formed as a group?

 5.   On my return to Idaho, the band Estilo was formed. Together with Estilo, we traveled the state of Idaho, spreading the great sounds of Tejano music. Estilo had the great privilege to perform in Vegas some of the conventions and San Antonio’s TTMA Fan Fair.

 

When was “Corazoncito” recorded and how long did it take for completion?

 6.   in 2004, Linna y Estilo recorded “Corazoncito” in San antonio, Texas. With this project, I had the opportunity to be a little more “hands on”. I got the opportunity to write and arrange a few songs for “Corazoncito”, as well as sing a few songs composed by my brother, my aunt, my late-grandfather and Art Guillermo. It took a few months to complete, but with hard work and dedication, it it took my career and experience with “tejano” to the another level.

 

Are you working on another album and when will it be released?

After a few years of taking time out to be a mother and raise my family, I’ve come back to what I know best, tejano music! I am releasing my new project under Q-Vo Records in San Antonio, Chente Barrera’s record label, entitled “Enamorada” which will be released on August 9th, 2011.

 

What is the difference or similarity between Idaho flavored Tejano and the Original Tejano?

There really isn’t a difference in Idaho flavored Tejano and the original Tejano. By mentioning “Idaho flavored Tejano”, I guess you can say I’m the spice! I’m just bringing a little bit of my Idaho flavor to Texas.

 

Will You be touring in other places such as Florida?

 With production on “Enamorada” being wrapped up, you can be sure I’ll be touring and performing EVERYWHERE very soon! I would love to perform outside of Idaho, into Texas and into other states, including Florida!

 

What is your message to your listeners and the world?

 My message to the public is: Be strong, be real, be positive,and have faith. Believe you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. Surround yourself with good people. Last but not least… NEVER GIVE UP!!!! A message to the young ladies out there looking for inspiration: Dream, that is the one thing that can help you reach above and beyond what you know. If you can dream, set goals and put your heart into it, the sky is the limit!

God bless

Con mucho amor y Ternura,

Linna
