Deep Forest
Legendary world-electronic duo Deep Forest perform an intimate set mixing ambient, electronic and world rhythms.
The Deep Forest story began in the early 90’s in the North of France with the intention of mixing ethnic music with their own electronic and jazz sounds.
Their debut self-titled album included the smash single ‘Sweet Lullaby’, which made them an instant worldwide name and, including subsequent releases, they went on to sell 10 million albums.
The band received a Grammy nomination for Best World Music Album and later won the award for the album Boheme. Collaborations include Peter Gabriel, Herbie Hancock and Aluna Wade, plus compositions for films and remixes for artists such as Youssou N’Dour.
In 2005 Michel Sanchez left to pursue a solo career while Eric Mouquet continued to release albums under the Deep Forest name, including Deep Africa and Deep India.
The current Deep Forest live set is versatile, shifting between high tempo electronic or jazz moments for dancing and ambient relaxing passages, while retaining the classic Deep Forest sound. 2024 marked the 30th anniversary of the Best World Music Album Grammy category and 2025 the 30th anniversary of Deep Forest’s win.
