He calls it Desert Eclectic.  His new concept album “Novella”, is a semi auto-biographical fairy tale of his cultural migration from East to West, which features many artists & a plethora of exotic instruments, including the Oud, Harp, Djembe & Cello to name a few. He has opened up for such acclaimed artist such as Award-Winning group “Carbon Leaf”, legendary band “Rusted Root”, and Grammy Nominated artist “Mathew Santos”.

Since June of 2012 his websites (www.mosno.net and www.SystemDown.net) have been banned in his home country Sudan, due to his anti-regime song “System Down (#SudanRevolts)”. He donates all the proceeds from that song to Girifna (we are fed up), a non-violent protest movement based in Sudan. His song “No Kingdom” is featured in the first Sudanese/ American short film “Faisal Goes West”, which premiered in Short Film Festivals in London, France, Italy, India, Germany, Morocco, and will be making a U.S. & Puerto Rico tour hosted by African Film Festival, Inc. in 2014.
