The music of HuDost, the Neo Folk World Rock Ensemble from Montreal and Nashville, weaves a seamless tapestry of sound that renders tears and laughter in listeners, cultivating that nameless longing that abides somewhere in all our hearts. HuDost's core musicians are Moksha Sommer and Jemal Wade Hines. Having toured the US, Canada, and Europe constantly since April 2006, HuDost has grown and expanded, traveled rocky and glorious terrain and marveled at all they can learn and explore. Moksha and Jemal, in this time have grown as artists, as seekers, as a couple and as a family. In 2013 their amazing son was brought into the world.
Highlight Performances Include Bonnaroo, Resident band at FloydFest, BhaktiFest, World Café Live, Alex Grey's CoSM, the Salvador Dali Museum, Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival, The Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, SE NPR's World Fusion Fest, headlining The Islands Folk Fest (Vancouver), WMNF's Tropical Heat Wave Festival, The Levitt Pavilions, WoodSongs at the Kentucky Theater (on PBS), Nashville's Bluebird Café, Music City Roots, Tim Robbins' WTF?!

HuDost's acoustic album '4th Way Folk' was released in 2013 and received a strong response of positive reviews. Scope Magazine refers to it as "an exceptional folk album that takes the genre in new and beautiful directions."
HuDost has two new projects that are in progress including a World Chant 'Sufi Kirtan' album as well as a collaborative record with Steve Kilbey of the Australian band The Church with special guest Jon Anderson of YES. On past albums HuDost has worked with Grammy Winner Malcolm Burn (Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris, Peter Gabriel) and Grammy Winner Oz Fritz (Tom Waits, Bill Laswell, Primus).
HuDost functions as a duo (with the core musicians Moksha Sommer and Jemal Wade Hines) or as a band, incorporating musicians of varying sensibilities and backgrounds, and often including performance art and dance in their shows. As a duo their instrumentation includes vocals, harmonium (Indian Pump-Organ), Shahi Baaja (Electric Indian Auto-Harp), guitars, Bazouki, Dulcinet, percussion, and a slew of sonic ambient effects. Their music is a rich, eclectic blending of Pop and Rock with traditional Sufi music, Bulgarian, Croatian, Macedonian and Balkan folk music, Farsi, Turkish, Arabic, and Folk. Their sound crosses all borders and barriers, taking the listener on a journey they will never forget.
