Tribal Funk & World Music.
Bio / Background
Pamyua is an indigenous Alaskan Native band that fuses Arctic Inuit traditions with world rhythms. Their music features unique Inuit songs and dances from Alaska, inspired by funk, R&B and jazz.
The group masters the ability to mix traditions with no boundaries, while still holding on to their Native roots. It is the enchanting harmonies, the sound of the didgeridoo, and the thunderous roll of the African djembe that causes a rich explosion of culture. - We like to call it Tribal Funk & World Music!

"Verses" was nominated 'Best World Music Album' in 2001 at the Native American Music Awards. This is a ripe studio album featuring the dynamic range of the Pamyua performers.
"Verses" holds to Pamyua's a cappella roots and musically reaches further. Orchestrated Jazz, R&B and world ensembles texture Pamyua's patent vocal sound. "Verses" features the musical styling of Danish pianist, a longtime collaborator with Pamyua.
Recorded in San Francisco, Anchorage and New York studios, "Verses" is an eclectic melting pot of world rhythms. The tribal groves feature the rich didgeridoo mastery of Stephen Kent and the soulful percussion of Tom Donlinger. The seasoned rhythm section help the Alaska Native group express their message of diversity in culture.
There is no set format for artistic vision and "Verses" reflects Pamyua's imagination and creativity.
