Over the weekend, Los Thuthanaka’s Chuquimamani-Condori appeared on the Nashville public radio station WNXP. In addition to debuting some unreleased music, they announced that the duo will release a new project on Friday, April 3 via Bandcamp. It’s called Waq’a.
The record will comprise three instrumental tracks: two set before the creation of the sun, and one about its implied ending. It will be accompanied by a booklet, published exclusively in Aymara and co-curated with Shana Inofuentes and Eber Miranda of Ch’ama Native Americas.
Waq’a will serve as the follow-up to Los Thuthanaka’s 2025 self-titled debut. Earlier this year, Chuquimamani-Condori’s brother and bandmate, Joshua Chuquimia Crampton, released the album Anata.
