The Isle of Wight duo debuted unreleased songs “Mangetout” and “Catch These Fists” during the inaugural episode of the UK version of the comedy show.
Wet Leg introduced new material to a national television audience during the series premiere of ‘Saturday Night Live’ in the UK. The band performed two currently unreleased songs, “Mangetout” and “Catch These Fists,” on the episode hosted by Tina Fey.
The performances continue the duo’s pattern of testing new tracks in a live setting ahead of studio recordings. Both songs align with their established sound of deadpan vocal delivery over sharp, post-punk inspired guitar lines and driving rhythms. The appearance marks a significant platform for the band within the UK, leveraging the high-profile launch of the iconic sketch show’s British iteration.
No official release date or album announcement has been tied to the new songs. The televised debut serves as a clear signal of new work in development, following their self-titled 2022 debut album and subsequent touring cycle.
