Dry Cleaning release new single, "Cruise Ship Designer"
Dry Cleaning have shared "Cruise Ship Designer" as the second single from their new album, Secret Love.
The new track follows lead single, "Hit My Head All Day" and arrives alongside a music video featuring the band’s Lewis Maynard performing a dance routine choreographed for the track by BULLYACHE.
Vocalist and lyricist Florence Shaw elaborates: “The song is about a cruise ship and hotel designer who’s skilled and paid well, but who doesn’t believe his role has real worth. He tries to enjoy it, and invests himself in meeting the challenges of the job.”
The band have also announced a run of outstore performances across the UK for January 2026, with stops in Brighton, London, Bristol, Leeds, Nottingham. The outstore run precedes an extensive North American, European and UK tour that includes the group’s biggest headline shows at LA’s Wiltern and London’s O2 Academy Brixton.
Secret Love is released on 9 January 2026 via 4AD. To pre-order, and gain access to pre-sale tickets, visit drycleaningband.com.
