      Agreed and I find that very interesting in context of their decision to play as a live band while touring as opposed to any other method of performance. I get the sense that they possibly felt they aren't "real musicians" unless they're playing an instrument on a stage. I wonder what Modjo would have continued on like if they'd decided to pick up DJing before that tour...

I was surprised to see that they're actually a band - wonder if that hurt their career. The live version of 'Lady' is good but it's nothing like the actual studio version.

    Some radios still plays Lady when it's summer, so I listened to their full album and like they said, I expected some sampled electronic music but instead I've found a lot of musicianship there and I wondered why such a good band like this stopped making music. Kinda sad to see that's a bit the reason behind it and I hope they release another album someday.
    If anyone haven't listened to it yet, don't lose more time and do it, you won't regret it.

      I don't know anything about her. Never seen her outside of those two music videos.
      Everything I know is from the material from Modjo. Both music videos are filmed in Quebec. It stands to reason the actors/actresses were recruited locally (except from the guys from Modjo making cameos). This channel has a short promo/ad about the band and their monster hit. In it, you can see her name (though I doubt it's real, see my reasons later) and you actually hear her speak which strongly suggests she's native French speaker recruited locally, as I theorized earlier.
      I know even less about the two dudes in the "Hear Me Tonight" music. I can't spot them in Chillin'. I doubt their names (Gilles and Patrice) are their real names as it could just be their characters' names (as seen in the promo I talked about earlier). I do have a suspicion the "boyfriend" is a model unlike the other two as he looks fit and stereotypically prettier. I could be wrong though.
