ABOUT

MŌRIAH — whose Mexican heritage is evident in her work as an actress, producer (music and film), recording artist and songwriter — has released the first track from her forthcoming Latin Country LP, due out in 2025. “‘Hasta Mañana,” released in English on October 4 in English and in Spanish on November 1, brings the dusty sound of a Juarez, Mexico Mariachi band and the classic country tones of Nashville’s finest session players into one magical place. 

“This song is a taste of the two worlds that live inside of me and so many second and third generation Mexican-Americans,” says MŌRIAH. 

“During Hispanic Heritage month, I wanted to celebrate my lineage through music. It’s only by the sacrifice of my grandparents and parents that I’ve been able to actively work as an artist.”

Produced by Paul Mabury (Lauren Daigle, Sheryl Crow, TobyMac), and co-written with Mabury and Paul Duncan, the track represents the effervescent spirit MŌRIAH embodies.

Of the writing and recording process, MŌRIAH shares, “I was working with Paul in Nashville and L.A. and through the creative process, we shared some of our early demos with a mariachi arranger in El Paso, Texas. His response was this, ‘Country is the folk of America. Mariachi is the folk of Mexico. You’ve found the bridge. And the bridge isn’t as long as you might think!’”

The Los Angeles native has a passion for celebrating individuality, diversity, and culture, and works to tell uplifting stories that highlight and represent women of color.

“From as early as I can remember, every family party, quinceañera and anniversary celebration featured a beautiful blend of country songs, Tejano, regional Mexican and classic Mariachi music. I can’t wait to share this history and heritage with you. Come, join my family and know that you are welcome to take part in a culture that is marked by hospitality, humility and dancing. In the words of my grandfather, ‘La música no tiene fronteras’ which means ‘music has no borders.'”
