Testament's Chuck Billy In The Smithsonian

08/23/2010
.
We never thought we would write such a headline but it is true. Metal legend Chuck Billy of Testament is in the Smithsonian. Here are the details:

Testament vocalist and Native American Chuck Billy is pleased to announce his inclusion in the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian's new exhibition, "Up Where We Belong: Native Musicians in Popular Culture". The exhibition is located on the National Mall on the second-floor level of the Sealaska Gallery, and is open until January 2nd, 2011.

Quoting the Smithsonian official press release, "Up Where We Belong" tells [Native artist's] stories and histories and provides visitors the opportunity to hear music and discover artists with whom these exceptional musicians collaborated. Visitors will also learn of the musical greats who inspired these artists, as well as the growing number of contemporary performers who follow in their path."

Chuck Billy is featured in the "Encore" segment of the exhibition, which features artists who represent the span of Native achievement in mainstream music over the past half century, according to the Smithsonian. Other musicians featured in this segment are saxophonist Jim Pepper, and singer Debora Iyall.
