[acoustic guitar music]
- Country music is a wondrously diverse body of music,
and nowhere is that diversity more strongly expressed
than in the music of Wisconsin.

Bill Miller was born on a reservation
in Shawano, Wisconsin
as a member of the Stockbridge-Munsee tribe.
Throughout his career,
he has performed both mainline country music
and the music of his Native American heritage.
As a Native American flute player and a guitar player
and as a singer, he's won three Grammy Awards.
His music is suffused with his passion for social justice,
the love of his people's heritage,
and his pride in being a Christian and an American.
