Released 07/11/25
Wet Leg have released their highly anticipated second studio album moisturizer, the follow-up to their GRAMMY-winning, Mercury Prize-shortlisted eponymous debut album Wet Leg (2022). The album is preceded by official singles “Catch These Fists,” “CPR” and “Davina McCall.”
“When we went into recording we had 16 songs, and we did drop a few of the punchier ones, because I think it is really important to have that kind of dynamic balance and ebb and flow to make an album sound balanced. It’s good to have little palette cleansers,” the band’s Rhian Teasdale explains to Variety. “After touring for so long, it was really important to us that the second album would feel good to play live. But then I think we also wanted to pepper in some softer moments that I don’t know how much we’ll end up playing live. For the album as a snapshot, it felt really important to have those little peaks and… I don’t want to say ‘peaks and troughs.’ But, you know, peaks and troughs in a waveform kind of way, not a life way, if that makes sense.”
To support the album’s release, the band will embark upon a summer and fall tour, including a handful of festival performances, followed by a string of North America, EU and UK dates.
