LOS ANGELES — Rhian Teasdale doesn't take long to answer when asked to identify her last truly brutal hangover.
"Oh, it was quite recent — and it wasn't even on tour," says the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of the English indie-rock duo Wet Leg. Teasdale, who formed Wet Leg with lead guitarist and backup vocalist Hester Chambers in 2019 after the two met as college students on the bucolic Isle of Wight, recounts an evening at a West London social club where she and a girlfriend swiped a bottle of vodka from behind the bar and began pouring each other drinks.
"The cocktails there were like 15 pounds," Teasdale explains with a kind of "can-you-blame-me?" expression. "And so the reason we got so drunk is because we were trying to get rid of the evidence."
