Thursday, February 25, 2010– Music Maker: Bill Miller:(listen)
When Bill Miller of the Stockbridge-Munsee Nation stepped up to the podium recently to receive his 2010 Grammy Award for Best Native American Music Album, he first thanked the Creator. As he held up his award in front of the crowd he said, “This is not a broken treaty. This is victory, not victim, it’s for our people.” He took home the Grammy for his album “Spirit Wind North,” which honors the tribes of North America through a message of hope and reconciliation to all. This marks the third Grammy award for Miller in the past five years.
