Sébastien Léger is celebrating a huge accomplishment in his DJing career, having been rocking the decks for two decades. We received word earlier this year that the French legend would be hitting the States for a special U.S. tour. Seeing as he's well-versed in house and techno, and found early inspiration in the likes of Daft Punk and Laurent Garnier, we just knew we'd be getting a real treat. Sadly, the U.S. leg of his tour (which was set to kick off in April) ended up being canceled. Regardless, 20 years is a long time to be doing anything, and while you might know his beats and how he can move a crowd, you might not be up on some of the more interesting facts of his life. Get to know Sébastien via the following video, then move on to find out 10 things that you didin't know about Sébastien Léger.
