Indie Artist Wet Leg Getting Major Internet Traction for “Chaise Longue”

On Thursday, June 15th, breakthrough band Wet Leg released the official music video for their debut song “Chaise Longue”.  This band is relatively new, so there’s not much info on them. They don’t even have a Wikipedia page. All we know is that this song slaps.

This is all the information we could find on the duo, via their UK based label, Domino.

“Amidst a night of hazy scenes in their native Isle of Wight, Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers found themselves at the summit of a Ferris wheel.

They decided to start a band. The band is called Wet Leg.

Arming themselves with guitars, a penchant for French disco, effervescent imaginations and a shared love of the The Ronettes and Jane Birkin, through to Ty Segall and Bjork, they set about making some recordings of their own.

The song is called “Chaise Longue”. Produced by Jon McMullen and mixed by Alan Moulder (Arctic Monkeys. Beach House, Foals), “Chaise Longue” is an infectious, tongue-in-cheek instant-classic with a suitably irrepressible video to match, directed by the band themselves.”

The song currently has over 600,000 views on YouTube, and we can’t stop playing it. Listen to the catchy new tune here.
