Wet Leg at 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin on November 26th, 2026.

Indie-rock band Wet Leg lit up the 3Olympia theatre last night with their unique sound and instrumental talent – but something felt slightly amiss. The show opened with ‘catch these fists’, the lead-single from the group’s chart-topping sophomore album Moisturizer. Its upbeat, catchy groove and the lyric “level up” encouraged the crowd to settle into the night from the outset. They immediately dove into their high-energy 2022 hit ‘Wet Dream’, which had the 1,240 strong crowd singing along.

The British band played through tracks like ‘Oh No’ and ‘Supermarket’ from their self-titled debut album, as well as ‘liquidize’ and ‘jennifer’s body’ from their most recent offering. It seemed that the former were more popular with the audience. ‘Being in Love’ was a standout performance which highlighted the showwomanship of leading lady Rhian Teasdale, whose stage presence felt both ethereal and endearing.

Songs such as ‘Pond song’, ‘Ur Mum’, ‘u and me at home’ and ‘davina mccall’ kept the good vibes going, before ‘11:21’ mesmerised the crowd as bubbles blew through the theatre, perfectly capturing the quirky charm of the Grammy-winning group. ‘pillow talk’, ‘Too Late Now’ and ‘Angelica’ led into the 2021 breakout single, ‘Chaise Longue’ brought an electric surge to the crowd who danced and sang along without a care in the world. It was one of the few points in the night where audience interaction truly sparked.

Teasdale once again held the audience in the palm of her hand during ‘CPR’, performing loose choreography with her mic stand during the choruses and using a vintage on-stage telephone in the bridge to mimic the effect on the original recording. The show came to a close just over an hour after it began with ‘mangetout’, the track which was dubbed “a damn-near perfect dance-punk summer jam” by Rolling Stone. The electric energy was evident in the room right up to the last guitar strum.

Overall, the set offered an energetic run-through of the band’s top hits, and while a longer runtime and a bit more crowd interaction could have elevated the experience even further, it was still an enjoyable performance.
