Playing a range of wind instruments the performers play music of native american origin whilst dressed in native costume, though there would seem to be some blurring of the edges when trying to determine if they are from north or south. Such bands describe themselves as 'Native Americans' whilst others claim Peruvian or 'Inca' ancestry can now be encountered throughout Europe. The magic is somewhat lost when they use 20th century electronic devices for amplification of their instruments and voices and in selling 'their' CD's.
