There’s a lot of musicians who are huge in Europe, but not in the US. Robbie Williams, Anastacia, most of Eurodance,… What musicians are the other way round?

      That is taking it a bit too far. Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash are definitely known, especially because they kinda crossed over into over genres than straight country, but 99% of other country artists aren’t.

      It’s hard to imagine stoner bands not doing well in Europe. Maybe it’s just because they’d start heading across the pond, get distracted, and turn around?

        I guess we had enough of our own stoner bands (or stoned-friendly bands) with the likes of Pink Floyd; Yes; Jethro Tull; Hawkwind; Ozric Tentacles; Emerson, Lake & Palmer, etc.

        Though American acts like Frank Zappa and Canadian acts like Rush made inroads.
