Dry Cleaning is ready to take 2026 by storm. Fresh from the holidays, Dry Cleaning is back with a new entrancing single, “Joy.” The Cate Le Bon-produced track is the final taste of Dry Cleaning’s forthcoming album, Secret Love, before it is released in full.
Their previously shared singles “Hit My Head All Day,” “Cruise Ship Designer,” and “Let Me Grow And You’ll See The Fruit” craft a buffet of rock’s avant-garde, early 80s US punk, hardcore, and more.
Produced entirely by Cate Le Bon, on Secret Love frontperson Florence Shaw, guitarist Tom Dowse, drummer Nick Buxton, and bassist Lewis Maynard weave together their most “expression yet of the profound friendships.”
Secret Love marks the follow-up to Dry Cleaning’s revered 2022 body of work, Stumpwork.
