What started off as a joke between friends of over 10 years, English rock duo Wet Leg just announced its debut EP is set to release in April of next year. If you’re like us and sing their song “Chaise Longue” nonstop, this is good news.
The band was signed and had an album recorded in early 2021 before they even played a show. You can see them on their first ever tour starting in early December. See tour dates below. They also shared the singles “Too Late Now” and “Oh No.”
In a statement, Wet Leg’s Rhian Teasdale said of “Too Late Now”:
“It is about sleepwalking into adulthood. I never imagined that my adult life would look the way it does and I guess this song reflects on some of the pressures and pulls of life. Sometimes I get really inside my head and everything can feel very overwhelming. I think this song is about accepting that life can feel a bit shit from time to time. Maybe don’t indulge that thought too much though. Just take some time for yourself. Take a breath. Have a bath. It might make you feel a bit better.”
