My name is Anton Reiter, and I run a podcast called On In Five. We cover all different types of musicians and bands, where we look at where they came from, how they got big, and often times, what made them fall out of the limelight. We do tons of researching with reading books, articles, forums, and just about anything else we can find to build out the most complete history of these musicians possible.
We just released the first episode of our newest series - Shania Twain. We look at her life, all the way from her birth. We cover her terrible childhood with her parents, how she rose above it, and how she made it famous. We look at some major characters in her life, like Mutt Lange, Mary Bailey, John Kotowski, and anyone else. We really try to paint a complete and thorough picture of her life. If you want to check it out, you can find the links to the apps you may use below. Please let us know how we did and what you think! Thanks!
Episode 38: Shania Twain Part One - Grandma Eilleen
January 27, 2021
In part one of our series on the best selling female country artist of all time, Shania Twain, we take a look at her life before she was reinventing what it meant to be a woman in country. Her childhood was less than stellar, having to deal with extreme poverty, physical and sexual abuse, and the death of her parents. All while trying to see if she could have a career in music.
Hi Everyone, Anton again, I just wanted to let you all know that part two of Shania Twain is out, and it looks like it's going to a three part series! If you listened and liked part one, go check out part two! If you listened and didn't like it, please let me know why, and if you didn't listen, that's okay too! Thanks!
Episode 39: Shania Twain Part Two - A Fit, Handsome, Rich, South African Raised, Zambian Born Producer with Long Curly Blonde Hair
February 10, 2021
In part two of our series on Shania Twain, we take a look at the beginning of her career as a successful country musician. We look at life after the death of her parents and how she wanted to give up on singing, who saved her and brought her back, and the small steps she took to signing with a major label. And once she was on that label, how she took matters into her own hands to develop a style all her own.
