Eight years ago, Mo was forced to flee his beloved homeland, finding refuge in the Netherlands. Here, his passion to preserve and share the Sudanese culture is reflected in his work with Kush Band. Mo’s compositions are rooted in the musical traditions of Sudan, which he studied when traveling across the country, learning from its many different cities and tribes. His creations showcase a unique pentatonic sound, interwoven with complex rhythmic patterns and evocative lyrics. The result is a collection of melodious, groove-driven songs that invite audiences to dance, celebrate, and connect with the soul of Sudan.
In 2023, Mo and Kush Band released their album Sudangali, a vibrant musical journey and a testament to their mission of bringing Sudan’s cultural beauty to the global stage. The 2025 album ASMAR brings 6 traditional songs from the different tribes of Sudan, in their original languages.
