Jayac is the quintessential "Andean flute band." The group was born in May 1988 in Zambiza, a small town near Quito. After four years of promoting their art throughout Ecuador, the group traveled to Europe and performed in Germany, France, Holland and Belgium.

In 1993 they performed in London the music for the movie "The Avenue of the Volcanos", produced by the British Broadcasting Company (BBC).

The band continues to travel abroad and tour at home, performing their soulful Andean music to great success.
