Montreal ensemble HuDost perform eclectic blend at Woodstock chapel

Sunday, June 14 at 7:30 p.m. — WOODSTOCK — Pentangle Arts is thrilled to co-present with the North Universalist Chapel Society, the neo-folk, world-rock ensemble HuDost on Sunday, June 14 at 7:30 p.m. at the North Universalist Chapel in Woodstock.

The band’s core members are Moksha Sommer and Jemal Wade Hines, a married couple who share a diverse array of musical talents, including: voice, piano, shahi baaja, guitar, bazouki, mandolin, bendir, percussion, and dulcinet. Their music is a rich, eclectic blending of pop and rock that also incorporates traditional music from countries such as Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Turkey, and the Middle East.

HuDost’s acoustic album “4th Way Folk” was released in 2013 to positive accolades and reviews. Scope Magazine refers to it as “an exceptional folk album that takes the genre in new and beautiful directions.”

A few of the band’s highlight performances include Bonnaroo, FloydFest, BhaktiFest, World Café Live, The Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, and SE NPR’s World Fusion Fest. HuDost has collaborated with various artists, including Ani DiFranco, Philip Glass, Jon Anderson, Joan Osborne, Snatam Kaur, Steve Kilbey, and many more.
