It doesn't matter where you got married. You have to get a divorce or an annulment before you can marry someone else. A legal marriage in any country in the world, is also a legal marriage in the US. You can't file for a divorce or annulment in the US unless you are an actual resident of the US

Do you have to file an annulment if your spouse committed bigamy?

A person can only be married to one other person at a time. If a person attempts to marry a second spouse while they are legally still married to the first, the second marriage is void as a matter of law. An annullment action pre-supposes that the second marriage was legal, which is incorrect, therefore there is no need to annul it.
