Mariah Gannessa’s Debut Album
A journey of music, ceremony, and ancestral roots

Singer, songwriter, medicine woman, and founder of Four Visions, Mariah Gannessa has released her debut album Munai—and it’s more than music.

“Munai” is a Quechua word for love, but as Mariah explains, it carries the deeper sense of unconditional, infinite love we connect to when we open our hearts. That spirit runs through every track, whether she’s singing in English, Spanish, Inga, or Hebrew. “The song comes through in the language it’s meant to come through in,” she says. “There’s not much thinking involved—it just arrives that way.”

Music as Prayer

Mariah’s journey into music began in ceremony, where songs are offerings between the spiritual and the tangible. “Music has been a vehicle for me to ground my prayer,” she shares. “This album feels like the opening of a door.” The result is an album that weaves her lineage, her languages, and her medicine path into a sound that feels both grounding and expansive.

Beyond the Studio

The creative process extended into film. Mariah has already released one full music video, with two more on the way, including Taita Curandero with Taita Juanito. Shot in Colombia’s mountains and the Amazon, the visuals capture the prayers behind the songs. “Recording the videos was a celebration,” she says. “It’s about bringing the prayer to life.”

From Medicine Woman to Musicera

For many, Mariah is best known as a medicine woman and the force behind Four Visions, a lifestyle brand that partners with Indigenous makers across South and Central America. Four Visions offers everything from microdosing tinctures and ceremonial tools to essential oils and botanical lotions—always sourced with integrity.

That same philosophy flows into her music. She often speaks of sacred reciprocity, the practice of being in relationship with what we receive rather than simply taking. “It’s a radical perspective change,” she notes, one that shapes how she approaches plants, culture, and art alike.

What’s Ahead

Mariah sees Munai as the beginning. A second album is on her five-year horizon, along with more live performances. For now, this record is her offering: a love letter to ancestors, plants, and the path of transformation.

With Munai, Mariah invites listeners to step into ceremony through sound—and to feel that infinite love for themselves.
