Our beautiful Wet Leg girls have just dropped yet another music video.
This latest from the Isle of Wight duo of Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers is filmed at an iconic location on the Isle of Wight.
See if you can work out where it is.
A look of the future
This music video has a look of the future, as seen in 1970, and we love it.
Amazing outfits made by the incredible Kate Arbor (you have to check out her other work) and styled by Emma Lipop (who’s equally brilliant for styling).
Keep them coming Wet Leg, we can’t wait to see more.
The good, the bad, the ugly
On making the video, Rhian says,
“It’s been a pretty wild ride for us these past few months, we never really thought much past actually making music and playing gigs.
“It’s quite an odd thing to suddenly open yourself to so much criticism and praise alike. The comments that complete strangers will leave on our videos are so funny and range wildly in sentiment.
” Although we know it is bad for us to read them and we try to avoid it, sometimes it’s irresistible when you’re on your own; the 3am doom scroll really gets you. For this video, we have obsessively selected our favourite bits from the comments sections across our socials – the good, the bad, the ugly – and have repurposed them to make something new. It has been quite cathartic actually.”
Rhian continues,
“The video was shot on the Isle of Wight, at the bottom of a chairlift that you can take from the top of the cliff. The rope costume – made by costume designer Kate Tabor – weighed an absolute tonne and it took three of us to carry it down the cliff to shoot.
“We’d each grab onto a limb, and after 20 minutes of heavy lifting managed to get it down the steep steps leading to the beach. We’re thinking of starting it up as a work-out class for alternative types.”
Wet Leg’s debut album
The band has achieved a phenomenal rise to fame since signing with Domino Records last year. They’ve picked up accolades galore and sold out live shows around the World.
Their debut album, Wet Leg, comes out on 8th April 2022 on Domino Records.
