Songs the Plants Taught Us

Peru's Amazon region is the home of the last remaining ayahuasceros, shamans who utilize native plants and ritual songs to induce healing trances. The Songs the Plants Taught Us is a remarkable document, offering a window for our ears and minds into authentic ayahuascero healing sessions.

Recorded deep in the Peruvian Andes, this rare treasure offers a variety of icaros (magical healing songs), each possessing its own peculiar, hypnotic beauty. Floating melodies, native chants, fragments of the Catholic liturgy, and spontaneous rhythms elicit visions of a spirit world alive with animist magic.
