Inkuyo is a multicultural musical ensemble that performs Andean music arranged by Gonzalo Vargas. Vargas is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, arranger, and record producer.

Inkuyo's most recent album is Pachakuti: The Overturning Of Space-Time, released in 2007.

"Wipala", the first track on their debut album, serves as a backdrop to the "Brazil Favela" segment of Ron Fricke's 1992 film Baraka.

Inkuyo's namesake is a particular village in the Andes.[1]
