ARANDU ARAKUAA: New video song taken from the new album

ARANDU ARAKUAA released a new official video for the song "Hêwaka Waktû" taken from "Wdê Nnãkrda", their new album coming out this August.

Part of the video clip was recorded on the day of the Indian to the Aldeia Bananal (Santuário dos Pajés), Distrit Federal, Brazil in a ritual in tribute for the first death anniversary of their leader, Shaman Santxiê Tapuya.

The band plays Enawenê- nawê flute, strictly used in rituals by Enawenê- nawê and other people from Xingu, giving the hint that the new album will go deeper in music and indigenous languages.

The album title "Wdê Nnãkrda" means “Tree Trunk” in the Akwẽ Xerente language. "Tree trunk reminds us of ancestry and conexion with Mother Earth", guitarist and composer Zândhio Aquino, said:
