The Wet! was the brainchild of Steppingstone /Buttertree Studio owner Donn Tarris. The group's short life was to catch a ride with the 'new wave' sounds that were popular in the just post-disco days of the very early 1980s.In 1980 The Wet! released on 7" 33 1/3 rpm EP called The Wet!, which included the hit "Deborah".

The band had a few drummers during its short life, including Glenn Henderson sitting in for some sessions, and finished off with Eric Annabelle before the group disbanded. Donn (me) left the band sometime in the early 80s and was replaced by Brian's brother Jamie Black on bass.The band continued to record more material at Donn's studio, renamed Steppingstone Production House following his buying out former partners. Dougg MacCaulder joined as a new partner in the studio about a year before it was closed.
