Wet Leg

Touring all over the world, Wet Leg developed into a taut, caustic live operation that made good on their debut album’s success: #1 chart placements at home and abroad, three GRAMMYs, two Brits and over half a billion streams.

Wet Leg – the Isle of Wight five-piece founded by Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers – released their eagerly anticipated second album ‘moisturizer’ in July 2025. Joined by Ellis Durand (bass), Henry Holmes (drums), and Joshua Mobaraki (guitar, synth), ‘moisturizer’ is fun and freaky and fabulous, an unbridled display of the live muscle Wet Leg have built up over a few years of non-stop touring. Punchier, prettier and more perverted where it counts, ‘moisturizer’ is an album of manic love songs and well-timed kiss-offs, delivered by a clan of the UK’s most beloved oddballs.

If success presents a fork in the road for any new band – to “go pop” or keep following your muse – Wet Leg emphatically chose the latter path – including working with Dan Carey again as their producer. In March 2024, the band decamped to Southwold to write; living together, working all day, watching horror movies all night, they soon locked into a new sense of symbiosis. Subsequently, all five members of Wet Leg have writing credits on moisturizer – “We were just kind of having fun and exploring,” says Chambers. “We focused on: Is this going to be fun to play live? It was very natural that we would write the second record together” adds Teasdale. ‘moisturizer’ is the band turning the dial up and delivering a record that is unapologetically bolder, stronger and raunchier.
