Wet Leg Shares New Singles, Announces New Tour Dates

It seems that everyone’s favorite band these days is Wet Leg. And with good reason.

The latest news from the British-born indie rock group is the release of the band’s new Spotify Singles and some new tour dates. The new singles include a cover of Ashnikko’s “Daisy” and a reworking of the band’s own song “Convincing.

Wet Leg has also announced four upcoming New York City headlining dates in December. They are also confirmed to support Harry Styles on his upcoming 2023 U.K. and European tour.

Fifteen months ago, Wet Leg, comprised of duo Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers, released its debut single “Chaise Lounge” and since then, they’ve rocketed to stardom, garnering 140 million streams and selling more than 250,000 albums.

“I remember going to stay with Rhian around the time we recorded Chaise with Jon McMullen and she had told me about this artist she’d been listening to loads,” says Chambers of the Ashnikko cover. “She sang and played ‘Daisy’ on the guitar in the morning while we had coffee. It feels like another little circle coming ’round in our Wet Leg world getting to make this cover.

“Most of our album was written in the depths of 2020, and right up to April 2021 when we went into the studio, ” adds Chambers about the reworking of “Convincing.” “Since live music has opened back up, we play some tracks just as they were recorded, but ‘Convincing’ is one of the songs that has gone through a little shapeshift over time as we’ve been playing gigs for the last year. This version we recorded with James leans into the more mellow and woozy world it exists in our live sets.”

As for the December headlining dates in New York, the band will play at Webster Hall, the Bowery Ballroom, Elsewhere and Music Hall of Williamsburg. Check out their full slate of gigs below.
