Rising Appalachia - Agua de la Madre (Official Music Video)

"Agua De La Madre" is a unique blend of North and South American traditions that bring together both the folkloric Latin and Appalachian musical sounds, offering a fresh perspective on cultural conversations, bolero traditions, and musical storytelling. It is also a song for the journey of motherhood. The universal mother, madre tierra, and the ACTUAL MOTHER; nurturing and taking us all through this life in her wide reaching arms.
As lovers of the rich exchange of music and song, years of cross-cultural exchange and language studies brought this song to life through the troubadour-style travel and music studies. It is sung as an elemental ballad, meant to harken the feminine powers of the natural world; the ocean, the seas, the skies, and the wild grounds beneath our feet.
This lyrical journey serves as a testament to Rising Appalachia's deep connection to the international sinew of song, here blending the rich and vibrant textures of the waters of the feminine with their deep rooted Appalachian influences.
The beautiful video work was brought to life by our incredible friend and collaborator Jade Sanchez, a Mexican American choreographer and videographer. The imagery is to evoke that surreal magic of the smells and sounds of the Latin American South, the power of its women and its waters, the natural wonders of the world. In bridging her own cultural ancestry, Jade created this piece of art for the maternal waters both inside and out. A love letter to lineage.

"Agua de la Madre" es una mezcla única de tradiciones norteamericanas y sudamericanas que unen los sonidos musicales folclóricos latinos y de los Apalaches, ofreciendo una perspectiva fresca sobre las conversaciones culturales, las tradiciones del bolero y la narrativa musical. Como amantes del rico intercambio de música y canciones, años de intercambio intercultural y estudios de idiomas dieron vida a esta canción a través de viajes y estudios musicales al estilo de los trovadores. Se canta como una balada elemental, destinada a evocar los poderes femeninos del mundo natural; el océano, los mares, los cielos y los suelos salvajes bajo nuestros pies. Este viaje lírico sirve como testimonio de la profunda conexión de Rising Appalachia con el entramado internacional de la canción, aquí fusionando las ricas y vibrantes texturas de las aguas de lo femenino con sus profundas influencias apalaches.
