On Saturday, August 8, 2026, Pamyua performed, Tradition in Motion: Mask and Sound ft Insun Park & Generals at Grand Performances in downtown LA. Pamyua was formed in April 1995 by brothers Phillip and Stephen Blanchett. The brothers stumbled upon a musical concept to blend Inuit drum/dance melodies with R&B vocal styling and arrangements. The duo immediately began sharing their performance around Alaska and collaborating with like-minded artists. Pamyua showcases Inuit culture through music and dance performances. The show is a platform to share indigenous knowledge and history. Their style derives from traditional melodies reinterpreted with contemporary vocalization and instrumentation. Often described as “Inuit Soul Music,” Pamyua has discovered its own genre. More info at: https://www.grandperformances.org/eve ...
