Watch Nardwuar interview Wet Leg

Wet Leg took time out of their nonstop 2022 tour schedule while in Vancouver for a deep cut gift-a–thon interview with Nardwuar. Wet Leg seem instantly overwhelmed by the Canadian legend, especially guitarist Hester Chambers, who frequently buries her face in her hands to keep from laughing. Subjects include: Rhian Teasdale’s love of The Velvet Underground; bassist Ellis Durand’s teenage ability to do backflips off walls; the Isle of Wight dialect; “celestial navigation”; Rhian’s summer working as a furry-suited theme park character; Archie B, their stuffed animal donkey; their Soulwax remix; Jan and Dean, Timbaland, and lots more. Watch below.

Wet Leg’s West Coast tour continues this weekend with festival appearances at THING in Washington State and This Ain’t No Picnic in Pasadena. They’ll be in NYC to open for Florence + The Machine at Madison Square Garden on September 17, and then play Asbury Park’s Sea.Hear.Now festival on September 18. All dates are listed below.

Wet Leg’s terrific, Mercury Prize-nominated debut album is out now.
