"RUMBLE is truth you can rock to. Play it loud!" (Toronto Star)

Filmmaker Catherine Bainbridge‘s award-winning music documentary RUMBLE: THE INDIANS WHO ROCKED THE WORLD is about the role of Native Americans in popular music history, a little-known story built around the incredible lives and careers of the some of the greatest music legends. RUMBLE shows how these talented Native musicians helped shape the soundtracks of our lives and, through their contributions, influenced popular American music history, telling the story of a profound, essential, and until now, missing chapter in the history of American popular music. With music icons like Link Wray, Charley Patton, Mildred Bailey, Jimi Hendrix, Redbone, Jesse Ed Davis, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Robbie Robertson and Taboo.

“A celebratory examination of the often-underappreciated role played in the development of American popular music by singers, musicians, and songwriters of Native American ancestry.” (Variety)

It’s been a terrific few years for music documentaries, and that winning streak continues with RUMBLE: THE INDIANS WHO ROCKED THE WORLD.” (New York Times)

“In the end, the story is one not only of rock- and pop-culture history, but of human persistence and indigenous contributions that have been historically (and often intentionally) overlooked.” (The Globe and Mail)
