I had chance to speak to 2 Mohammeds at the band, they are really nice guys, very friendly and very close to the people in Sudan. Also some songs were really meaningful, the ones about Sudan and The World itself. If you have a chance to listen them, don't miss it. Here are some photos/videos from the event, also a few performance videos of Sudan Roots Band.

    I'm a Sudanese expatriate and I came across your blog through Facebook through the cleaning up the Sunut forest project!
    I just wanted to say I was / am so happy that you seem to be having a good time in Khartoum and are appreciating something very special and that is the people who you meet there, in spite of the challenges that one can face living in Sudan.
    I hope you have a great stay and that you dive in the Sudanese Red Sea.
