Pamyua (bum-yo-ah) is a musical group that has gained worldwide recognition. Founded by Inuit Yup'ik African American brothers Phillip Kilirnguq Blanchett and Steven Qacungatarli Blanchett, the group produces music with traditional Yup’ik and African-American elements to create what they call "Inuit Soul." They are also the group behind the theme song for the @PBSKIDS show, @MollyofDenali. They hope to bring awareness to Alaska Native and Indigenous cultures by bringing their music and dancing to the mainstream media and around the world.
