Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers each wear a small gold necklace made by Hester: one that says Wet, and one that says Leg. Before last summer, those necklaces would have been cryptic to almost everyone else. However, a lot has changed since then.

They have already performed on Jools Holland and Seth Meyers, supported a slew of great acts from CHVRCHES, Idles and Harry Styles, sold out their entire 2022 tour with only two songs out in the world (Wet Dream followed in September, another absolute corker) and now, a full album. Here are the pop stars you’ve been waiting years to discover.
