They're soon exposed to rituals, customs and above all a musical culture that they've never experienced before.
At the end of the week the visiting musicians will collaborate with their hosts and create a piece of music that will be played in a grand finale concert for the village and its neighbours. The newly recorded track, which will blend two very different styles together, will be made available for download, with shares of the sales benefiting the tribe.
Stand by for homesickness, sickness, new found friendships and incredible, uplifting stories, all proving that music is still the only language we've ever needed to communicate.
