Shaneihu Yawanawa

Shaneihu Yawanawa is a man of multitudes: he is a spiritual leader, musician, hunter, father and chief of the Yawarani village. Early on, his role as a bridge between the Yawanawa people and the rest of the world led him to introduce the guitar to their vocal music tradition. Twenty years on, instruments are infused into the music and spiritual practices of the Yawanawa.
