Wet Wet Wet - Celebrating 40 Years of "popped in Souled Out"

City HallSat 16 OctLive Music

The Spiel

Wet Wet Wet have announced that they will be performing forty shows across the UK in 2027 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their iconic debut album Popped In Souled Out - the record that announced them to the world and launched one of Britain’s most successful pop careers. Released in 1987, Popped In Souled Out was the album that introduced Wet Wet Wet to not only a national audience, but a global one too. It reached No.1 on the UK Albums Chart and featured the hit singles “Wishing I Was Lucky”, “Sweet Little Mystery”, “Angel Eyes” and “Temptation”. The record went multi-platinum in the UK and established the band as one of the key British acts of the late 1980s, whilst breaking into the Billboard Charts in the USA. Having spent over 70 weeks on the UK albums chart, Wet Wet Wet’s debut album laid the groundwork for continued success, with the band enjoying many further hit albums and singles, including the number 1’s “With A Little Help From My Friends”, “Goodnight Girl” and “Love Is All Around”, their ubiquitous cover of The Troggs’ 1960s song.
