Wet Leg perform ‘catch these fists’ on Jimmy Fallon


The Isle of Wight five-piece Wet Leg returned this week with news of their second album moisturizer to be released on July 11th.
The band were on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night performing their single ‘catch these fists’, a song which nicely harks back to their self-titled debut sound.
Here’s the video that dropped for the song.
Punchier, prettier and more perverted where it counts, moisturizer is an album of manic love songs and well-timed kiss-offs.
Wet Leg are founding members Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers joined by Ellis Durand (bass), Henry Holmes (drums), and Joshua Mobaraki (guitar, synth).
In March 2024, the band decamped with Dan Carey 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 focussed on: Is this going to be fun to play live? It was very natural that we would write the second record together” adds Teasdale.
