Los Ruphay

**Los Ruphay** is a cherished Bolivian folk ensemble keeping Andean traditions alive through their vibrant music. Known for weaving indigenous Quechua and Aymara influences into their sound, they use classic instruments like the charango, quena (Andean flute), and bombo drum to create earthy, soulful melodies. Their work often celebrates Bolivia’s natural landscapes and cultural heritage, while also touching on themes of social justice and environmental awareness—like in their stirring album *A Cry for Revolution: Earth Healing Music from Bolivia*. With releases such as *Folklore de Bolivia* and *The Three Seasons of the Andes*, they’ve become ambassadors of Andean folklore, blending ancestral rhythms with a contemporary spirit that resonates both locally and globally.
