Dry Cleaning have rescheduled their imminent tour of North America, cutting a handful of dates and postponing the rest until May. The band cited “the increasingly hostile economic forces that govern touring” in a statement that you can read below. Their European dates are unaffected. With the news comes a new song, “Let Me Grow and You’ll See the Fruit,” from Secret Love, the album the London band will release, via 4AD, on January 9, 2026. The video stars Chicago personality Bruce Lamont, who contributes saxophone to the song, performing a solitary, Bullyache-choreographed dance on a loop. Watch that below.

In a statement about the tour rescheduling, the band said:

Aside from the great pleasure of sharing ‘Let Me Grow…’ with you all today, it is with heavy hearts that we must also share some important news.

We have had to take the difficult decision to move our Jan/Feb ‘26 US tour to May. This is due to a number of factors, not least of which the increasingly hostile economic forces that govern touring in the present day. Thankfully we have managed to reschedule the majority of the original shows and all tickets will remain valid, if that suits you, and refunds available if it does not. Regrettably, we have been unable to make this work for all dates due to the shortened routing. Refunds will be available from your place of purchase and we will do everything in our power to play for you as soon as we can.

Thank you for your patience and continued support.

YHWH Nailgun remain booked as support for the start of the tour. Support for the remaining shows has not been announced.

“Let Me Grow and You’ll See the Fruit,” which follows the Secret Love singles “Cruise Ship Designer” and “Hit My Head All Day,” is “about hyper focus and loneliness,” Florence Shaw says in a press release. “It’s confessional, like a diary entry, written in a stream of consciousness style.”
