HuDost is Moksha Sommer, from Montréal, and Jemal Wade Hines from Kentucky. Their worldly music weaves a seamless tapestry of folk and rock with an exotic blending of traditional Sufi, Bulgarian, Croatian, Macedonian and Balkan folk music, Farsi, Turkish, Arabic, and sounds that cross all borders.

Their album, ‘Anthems of Home’ is a breathtaking original collection of compositions that feature many special guests including Jars of Clay, The Accidentals, and Christie Lenée.
