Sukay performs Music of the Andes.
They have had three major group formations. The first, under the musical direction of Edmond Badoux (now of Chaskinakuy), featured his then wife, Quentin, as well as Javier Canelas and Gonzalo Vargas (who would go on as a founding member of Inkuyo). This formation of the group released two albums, “Music of the Andes” in 1978, recorded in Quebec, and released on Flying Fish records; and “Pacha Siku” in 1979, recorded in Berkeley, CA, which was released on the Aural Tradition label, in association with the Vancouver Folk Music Festival. This group formation performed together until around 1985. This group formation focused on traditional Andean Village music.
The second major formation of the group started in 1985, when Edmond, Gonzalo, and Javier left the group, Carlos Crespo and Omar Sepulveda joined the group. This group formation focused on more contemporary mestizo music from the Andes, and released four albums on Flying Fish records, all recorded in San Francisco, CA - They were “Socavon” in 1985, “Tutayay” in 1986, “Mama Luna” in 1987, and “Huayrasan” in 1988. The group occasionally featured other musicians, such as Mario Lino Perez, who was a guest artist on “Tutayay”. Carlos Crespo contributed most of the group’s original compositions during this period. Additionally, they released “Sukay Instrumental,” a compilation of instrumental pieces from this period, later in 1988.
