#12 María Moctezuma | Healing Music, Indigenous Identity, Lesbian Voice

Today, I’m super excited to have María Moctezuma
on the show.María is a singer-songwriter
and an activist from Mexico. She blends ancestral sounds with
powerful political messages. Today, she’s based in Germany.
Her music is deeply rooted in Maya culture and explores themes of
identity, decolonization, and resistance. María sings over
layered vocal loops and traditional instruments, creating
soundscapes that are both ancient and radically present.
She calls her music Sonido Raizoso (sound of the roots) and
through it, she brings feminist, queer, and Indigenous stories to
the stage. Her performances are pretty mind-blowing.
María is not just making music — she’s reclaiming space.

Content note: This episode includes mentions of bullying and
scarification.
