Dry Cleaning

Secret Love

£13.99

Released: 9th January 2026. Dry Cleaning return with 'Secret Love', their third studio album, produced by Cate Le Bon. 'Secret Love' is the finest expression yet of the profound friendships that created Dry Cleaning, between frontperson Florence Shaw, guitarist Tom Dowse, drummer Nick Buxton and bassist Lewis Maynard. Here, the south London four-piece take their place in rock's avant garde, catalysing the Reaganite paranoia of early '80s US punk and hardcore with the dry strut of Keith Richards, stoner rock, dystopian degradation, playful no wave and pastoral fingerpicking, while Florence's delivery, meticulously calibrated to her bandmates' soundscapes, asserts her in a lineage of spoken-word artists stretching from Laurie Anderson to Life Without Buildings' Sue Tompkins.
