Dry Cleaning share ‘Gary Ashby’. The new single, from their 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.”
To support the release of Stumpwork, Dry Cleaning announced their debut Australia & New Zealand Tour, playing shows in Auckland, Wellington, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth in December. Further tour info below!
