Brothers Phillip and Stephen Blanchett formed Pamyua in 1995, stumbling upon a musical concept of their own making that blends Inuit drum/dance melodies with R&B vocal stylings and arrangements - often described as Inuit Funk and Inuit Soul Music. Now performing with a collection of like-minded artists, reinterpreting traditional melodies with contemporary vocalization and instrumentation. Their show is a platform to share indigenous knowledge and history, honoring those traditions through ceremony, songs, and dance.
