Quique Escamilla

JUNO Award-winning, Quique Escamilla, is a Mayan-Mestizo singer-songwriter born and raised in the Mayan land of Chiapas, Mexico. Today he is an international touring artist and producer based in Toronto, Canada.

Quique breaks down language barriers through his powerful voice and passionate delivery while fusing traditional Mexican and Latin American rhythms, such as ranchera, huapango and cumbia—along with contemporary elements of folk, rock, reggae and blues.
His songs tell stories designed to support and elevate Indigenous Peoples' voices and their untold stories across the Americas, while aiming to help decimate the impacts of colonization, racism and xenophobia around the globe.

 "Every performance is an opportunity for me to stimulate the human conscience and intellect, with potential to help effect positive change in this world"—Quique Escamilla.
