Ian Wapichana

Ian Wapichana is a contemporary Brazilian musician, singer-songwriter, and activist who has been actively using his art to voice the stories and struggles of the indigenous people of Brazil. Hailing from the Wapichana tribe, his music often resonates with themes of social justice, history, and the assertion of indigenous identity. Through his poignant lyrics and melodious compositions, he channels the spirit of his ancestors, aiming to heal and educate with every chord and verse.

His recent releases demonstrate his commitment to these themes. "Reparação Histórica" calls for the recognition and restoration of rights to indigenous communities, while "Ancestrais" is a tribute to the generations that came before, acknowledging their wisdom and sacrifices. "A Viagem" takes listeners on a metaphorical journey, exploring the path of self-discovery and connection to one's roots. In "Máfia dos Calças Jeans," he critiques the influence of modernity and consumerism on traditional ways of life. Finally, "Livro de Mentiras" tackles the misrepresentations and falsehoods often told about indigenous histories. With each song, Ian Wapichana forges a bond between the past and the present, ensuring that his message—and the voices of his people—are heard loud and clear.
