When you are light hearted, fancy free but also like a good argument and a little chaos, then you are Chamané.
Xamané (the Guarani spelling) comes from the province of Corrientes in the northeast of Argentina at the borders of Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. It can be described as a mix of three European tempos — polka, waltz, mazurka — with Guarani indians rythms. The Chamané is sung both in guarani and Spanish.
