Í byrjun kvöldsins mun Júla Alchemy bjóða þeim sem vilja upp á Ceremonial Cacao og setja tóninn fyrir kvöldið. Þar á eftir leika Sveinbjörn og Eygló nokkur lög hver áður en Curawaka hópurinn tekur sviðið og töfrar fram sína einstöku tóna. 

Curawaka hópurinn er heiðursgestur kvöldsins en þau hafa undanfarin ár ferðast um allan heim til að kynna sig og sína hughrífandi tónlist en hin kynngimagnaða söngkona Curawaka, Anna Bariyani, syngur hvorki meira né minna en á sjö tungumálum; Hatcha Kuin, Yawanawa, Sami, Spönsku, Portúgölsku, Ensku og móðurmálinu Norsku. Þeirra fyrsta plata "Call of the Wild" frá 2018 hefur slegið rækilega í gegn og lög eins og "He Yama Yo", "Noku Mana", "Te Nande" og "Vem Mae Naureza" eru orðin mörgum vel kunn. Nýja platan þeirra "Dreamtime" kemur út núna í sumar en fyrstu lög af þeirri plötu eru nú þegar farin að hljóma og ná vinsældum.

Curawaka has spent years living with, and learning from, indigenous tribes all over the globe. Vocalist Anna Bariyani sings in seven languages, including Hatcha Kuin, Yawanawa, Sami, Spanish, Portuguese, English and her mother tongue, Norwegian. Her songs celebrate and echo the voices of the peoples of the natural world, their spirituality and sacred practices. Curawaka is launching their second and long-awaited album «Dreamtime» in spring 2023, and is traveling around Latin America and Europe this year to share their new material with the world.Curawakashares chants and tunes from all over the world, cosmic world folk and so-called "medicine music". They released the album "Call of the Wild" in 2018, containing hits such as "He Yama Yo", "Noku Mana", "Te Nande" and "Vem Mae Naureza".

Often associated with the term medicine music or new world music, Curawaka reflects a larger movement of collective healing, in which a growing number of individuals, from all social backgrounds, seek a deeper meaning than what modern culture tends to offer. Curawaka holds the prayer of unity between all peoples, in order to defend and protect the natural world as the very sacred foundation of all life. Their musical craftsmanship, often united with significant voices from respected indigenous communities, creates a unique sense of purpose and authenticity in their art, an important and beautiful offering to a world in great turbulence. https://curawaka.com/
