Dry Cleaning biography

Dry Cleaning are an English post-punk band formed in South London in 2017. The group consists of vocalist Florence Shaw, guitarist Tom Dowse, bassist Lewis Maynard, and drummer Nick Buxton. Noted for their distinctive blend of motorik riffs, angular guitar work, and Shaw’s spoken-word vocal delivery, Dry Cleaning quickly gained attention for their unconventional lyrics, dry wit, and minimalist approach. Dry Cleaning released their debut album, New Long Leg, in 2021 to widespread critical acclaim. Their follow-up, Stumpwork (2022), further established their reputation, characterized by observational, collage-like lyrics and inventive post-punk instrumentation. Stumpwork won the Grammy Award for Best Recording Package in 2023, celebrating its striking design and packaging art—an important milestone in the band’s career. Renowned for their democratic writing and introspective approach, Dry Cleaning continue to evolve, with their third studio album currently in production with producer Cate Le Bon in France as of 2025.

  • What's interesting in Manchester?

    Manchester has become one of the largest cities in Britain over the past hundred years. Although Manchester is a city with a very rich history, the main focus of its development has always been industry. The center is almost entirely furnished with warehouses and factory buildings, entangled with a network of canals and old railway bridges. It is quite natural that no one gave such kindness to the reduction of production: in the former shops now open fashionable bars, in factory warehouses - designer shops, and under the old bridges "settled" nightclubs. It was for the active nightlife of the city and got its middle name - Madchester.
