Wet Wet Wet Tickets

Best known for their 1994 cover of The Troggs' 1960s hit "Love Is All Around", which was used on the soundtrack to the film Four Weddings and a Funeral, award-winning, soft rock heroes Wet Wet Wet are embarking on a new era in 2017 after singer Marti Pellow decided to call it a day after 30 years with the group. With three number one albums (and six top ten records) to their name, the legendary group will surely have no trouble finding a willing and able frontman to join their ranks.

Wet Wet Wet: soft rock legends

Marti Pellow, Tommy Cunningham, Graeme Clark and Neil Mitchell came together at school to form their first group Vortex Motion. After performing at Glasgow's Nightmoves they were picked up by PolyGram Records and released their first single "Wishing I Was Lucky" in 1985, soaring straight to number six in the charts. The band's true commercial success came soon afterwards, with a cover of Beatles song "With a Little Help From My Friends" providing them, their first number one hit. 1992 saw another chart topper with "Goodnight Girl", but their peak arrived in 1994. "Love is All Around" was used on the soundtrack for Four Weddings and a Funeral and spent a remarkable 15 weeks at the top of the charts.

After commemorating a decade in the industry with seventh album Ten, the group disbanded, only briefly returning five years later for a series of greatest hits gigs. Reliving the glory of their breakthrough record over 20 years earlier, the band returned in 2007 with Timeless and resumed touring across the globe before Pellow left the band after thirty years in 2017. 

Wet Wet Wet the musical?

While there's little doubt regarding Wet Wet Wet's legacy, the idea of Wet Wet Wet going the same way as Take That, who recently had their own stage show musical treatment in the form of The Band, isn't such a stretch. Former lead singer Marti Pellow was known to be keen on the idea - having expressed an interest during an interview with ITV's Lorraine Kelly - meaning a Wet Wet Wet musical could certainly be on the cards in future.
