Sukay is a musical group known for playing music of the Andean regions of Peru, Ecuador, Chile and Bolivia. Sukay was started by Edmond Badoux from Switzerland and Quentin Howard from the United States in 1974. In 1975 they traveled to South America for a year where they studied Andean music in many small villages in Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. Upon returning from the trip they began to tour the United States and set up their home base in San Francisco, CA. They were joined by two Bolivian musicians, Gonzalo Vargas and Javier Canelas, to make Sukay a powerful influence in the United States for indigenous Andean music.
Edmund Badoux started a new group, Chaskinakuy with Francy Vidal in 1985. They are still based in California.
