Dry Cleaning

Today, Dry Cleaning share a new song, ‘Gary Ashby’. The third single from the London-based quartet’s second album, Stumpwork (out 21 October), follows the travails of a beloved family tortoise lost in lockdown (“Have you seen Gary?”). Loaded with melodious hooks, the 2-minute jangle pop song is “a lament about a pet tortoise, escaped as a result of family chaos,” explains the band. “We wrote it in December 2020, one of the first new songs after the New Long Leg session.”
