Few Grammy winners have never performed in the United States. Fewer still sell more than 10 million albums worldwide without doing so. But a decade-and-a-half after grabbing a Grammy for Best World Music Album, ethnic-electronica outfit Deep Forest is headed our way.

Musical history [was] made in Boston Wednesday night when Deep Forest [made] its American debut as part of a Bastille Day celebration at the Beehive.

"Yes, it's true," Deep Forest co-founder Eric Mouquet said by phone from Paris. "I have played everywhere in the world except for the U.S.A." [Boston Herald]

Not playing in the US ever is basically saying he's never played anywhere. That's right, I said it. WE'RE ALL THAT MATTERS.

I know all you hipsters rock the Pure Moods compilation album from the 90s. That was the shit.

"Wikipedia says they played the US in 96"

I trust the guy who writes the music more than I trust Wikipedia
