Part of the series: IMAGE, LANGUAGE & BODY. Indigenous Films at the Chelsea Theater.
This revelatory documentary brings to light the profound and overlooked influence of Indigenous people on popular music in North America. Focusing on music icons like Link Wray, Jimi Hendrix, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Taboo (The Black Eyed Peas), Charley Patton, Mildred Bailey, Jesse Ed Davis, Robbie Robertson, and Randy Castillo, RUMBLE: The Indians Who Rocked the World shows how these pioneering Native American musicians helped shape the soundtracks of our lives. The idea for RUMBLE came about when guitarist Stevie Salas, an Apache Indian and one of the film’s Executive Producers, realized that no one outside of the music business knew about the profound contribution of these Native musicians. Winner of a Special Jury Award for Masterful Storytelling at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
Dir. by Catherine Bainbridge and Alfonso Maiorana. 2017. 112 minutes.
