We knew <em>RUMBLE<\/em> had the power to touch a very wide audience with an important story that has never been told&#8211;so we jumped in with both feet&#8211;and never looked back. We are in a time of reckoning with the true history of North America \u2013 built on 4 million black slaves and stolen Native American land. Music is a powerful window into those difficult stories \u2013 because music speaks to the soul and to our higher selves so we can be open.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stevie Salas, Executive Producer (Apache):\u00a0<\/strong>I spent my whole professional career trying to find a balance between the madness (which was really fun) and being artistically and spiritually grounded (enough to still enjoy myself but not lose myself).<\/p>\n<p>To keep that balance I would bounce in and out of Indian Country. I am a Native American musician who spent years searching out Native American players. I have been lucky enough to work with many of the biggest rock stars in the world who would often tell me incredible stories about the Native American musicians that they loved and often worshipped. The more I learned the more I wanted the world to know.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tim Johnson, Executive Producer (Mohawk):<\/strong> <em>RUMBLE<\/em> was made to reveal the depth, breadth, and substance of Indigenous contributions to the development of American popular music. What began as an initial effort to recognize the career accomplishments of select Native musicians, grew with inquiry, research, and discovery into a profound and revelatory awakening that the blues, jazz, folk, and rock &amp; roll were nourished by Native American influences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alfonso Maiorana, Co-Director, Co-Writer, Director of Photography:<\/strong> First of all, my passion for music and its history has played a huge part in my artistic life as a filmmaker. Secondly, the opportunity and importance of making such a historic film was the greatest motivation. Retracing American history through the influence and contribution of Native American music was a conscious duty. Allowing the story to be told predominantly through an Indigenous voice, thus celebrating these incredible iconic musicians and innovators, is a narrative that needs to be respected.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17896\" style=\"width: 1930px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17896\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17896\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/buffy-st-marie-rumble.jpg\" alt=\"Buffy Sainte Marie, in RUMBLE\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/buffy-st-marie-rumble.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/buffy-st-marie-rumble-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/buffy-st-marie-rumble-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-17896\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Buffy Sainte-Marie, in RUMBLE<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Who do you hope your film impacts the most?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Catherine:<\/strong> I want people \u2013 especially Indigenous people \u2013 to feel empowered by knowing the truth about history, I want young Indigenous people to feel pride through this film. And I want everyone else to be joyful that these unknown Native American superstars are now being acknowledged and celebrated and are now taking their rightful place in American music history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stevie:\u00a0<\/strong>At first I wanted Native American people to know that they had some amazing role models that had inspired the world but then as the story grew I wanted the world to know how these musicians inspired the world solidifying their rightful place in history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tim:<\/strong> Because American popular music is global in its cultural impact, the film will serve to raise awareness that not only did Indigenous peoples survive colonization, but also participated in the shaping of American art and culture. The American identity, so beautifully expressed through its music, must also now be understood in the context of the American Indian experience. That\u2019s powerful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alfonso:<\/strong> I hope the film impacts all the First Nations across every continent. If <em>RUMBLE<\/em> can create a sense of pride within the Indigenous community and open the minds of the rest of the western world, maybe through music we can understand and acknowledge their history, in turn, revisit our own. Suffice to say, art is the biggest healer and the true recognition of the Native American&#8217;s contribution to music is the first giant step to an inclusive and peaceful future.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17889\" style=\"width: 1930px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17889\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17889\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pat-vegas-redbone-rumble.jpg\" alt=\"Pat Vegas of Redbone\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pat-vegas-redbone-rumble.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pat-vegas-redbone-rumble-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/independentlens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pat-vegas-redbone-rumble-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-17889\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pat Vegas of Redbone<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>What were some of the biggest challenges you faced in making this film?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Catherine:\u00a0<\/strong>One of the biggest hurdles in producing a film like this, one with a lot of famous people in it was getting through to them, getting access to them for interviews.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine, we started contacting Martin Scorsese\u2019s people in October 2015. He liked the idea and wanted to participate. Finally, by April 2016, his office said, &#8220;Okay, we\u2019re ready for you, come next week.&#8221; Our crew had to jump and get down to New York fast! These people are busy, it takes a long time to schedule even if they are willing to participate.<\/p>\n<p>An unthinkable added challenge that I had to deal with during the production was my teenaged daughter getting cancer. She\u2019s fine now, but as you can imagine, it was not easy for me.<\/p>\n<p>In making a film like <em>RUMBLE<\/em>, a huge challenge was to whittle down almost 200 hours of original footage that included 124 interviews, thousands of archival images and film excerpts to a reasonable length for a film.
