Wet Leg Announces New Single 'CPR' and Announces EU tour with Show @ AB, Brussels on November 2

Kicking off their UK tour last week that saw the band play two storming shows at London’s Brixton Academy as well as Radio 1’s Big Weekend, Wet Leg continue their comeback with the palpitation-inducing new single “CPR”. The opening track of their second album moisturizer (due July 11th), “CPR” is one of the many love songs found on their upcoming record. However, Rhian Teasdale’s refrain of “Is it love, or suicide?” confirms that this is not exactly Wet Leg Does Barry Manilow. As the band lock into a sleazy beat, Teasdale sings about her new romance with a sly, nihilistic deadpan, before letting all hell break loose on the chorus.

The video for “CPR”, directed by the band, is a headbanging, freewheeling one-take glimpse into the world of the UK’s most beloved oddballs.

Watch the video for "CPR" here Although Teasdale previously felt allergic to writing love songs, moisturizer is defined by its sheer exuberance and Teasdale ended up finding the process empowering. moisturizer is the band turning the dial up and delivering a record that is unapologetically bolder, stronger and raunchier.

Alongside “CPR”, Wet Leg have announced a run of UK outstores including Kingston’s Pryzm plus a new tour for Europe in October. The band’s mammoth 22-stop North American moisTOURizer will start on September 1st in Seattle, numerous shows have sold out already. Pre-order moisturizer via specific record stores for access to the outstores, info here.

“CPR” follows the frenetic, alluringly combative lead single “catch these fists” which has now been performed live on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and The Jonathan Ross Show.
