Indigenous Music and Representation on the Screen

In honor of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Sound & Vision Assistant Producer Grace Madigan profiles Native musicians Lil Mike & Funnybone, Samantha Crain, and Halluci Nation about their involvement in the recent TV shows Reservation Dogs as well as in Halluci Nation’s case, Rutherford Falls, and how important and meaningful Native representation is in mainstream entertainment. KEXP’s Martin Douglas also chats with the music supervisor for Reservation Dogs, Tiffany Anders. Hear about the older Native American folk and psych rock musicians whose music did and didn’t make the cut for the show.   This is a special Indigenous Peoples’ Day Episode of the Sound & Vision podcast.
