An evening of music, prayer and celebration with the Yawanawá and Huni Kuin in Brighton.
About this Event

We’re very happy to share that the Yawanawá and Huni Kuin will be together in Brighton for a special evening of music, prayer and connection.

This is a rare opportunity to experience both traditions together, something not often seen, even in the Amazon.The Yawanwa and Huni Kuin together at the Brighton Unitarian Church.

This gathering brings together voices from the Amazon, carried through song, rhythm and shared presence. Tamani, Yaka and Shane Huni Kuin will be joined by the Yawanawa's as we welcome back Yawa Vay and Wanu, (who we with us in February.) alongside Timo and Sana.

Together, they offer an evening that is both uplifting and deeply connecting, rooted in tradition and shared with openness. It is such a rare blessing to see the two tribes together and for those of you who were at Soul Revolution last year, you know the force these five can bring.

This is a night of music, song and shared celebration.

*The cost of this event is slightly higher due to the fact that we are supporting 7 indigenous.
