RUMBLE: The Indians Who Rocked The World tells the story of a profound, essential, and, until now, missing chapter in the history of American music: the Indigenous influence. Many artists and musical forms played a role in the creation of rock, but arguably no single piece of music was more influential than the 1958 instrumental “Rumble” by American Indian rock guitarist and singer/songwriter Link Wray.
Featuring music icons Charley Patton, Mildred Bailey, Link Wray, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Jimi Hendrix, Jesse Ed Davis, Robbie Robertson, Redbone, Randy Castillo, and Taboo, RUMBLE shows how these talented Native musicians helped shape the soundtracks of our lives.
Documentary, 2017, 102 minutes.
