On of our favs Dry Cleaning have announced two small Dublin dates this year.
having last played Vicar Street, it’s a pleasant surprise to see the news that Dry Cleaning will play Whelan’s on April 9th and 10th.
The gig announcements coincide with the announcement of reissues of the band’s early EPs on 4AD – Sweet Princess (Aug 2019) + Boundary Road Snacks And Drinks (Oct 2019) on one release, due on March 8th on blue & black vinyl variants, CD and some cassettes.
Here’s ‘Sit Down Meal’.
Tickets for both shows go on sale Friday, 19th January at 10am through Singular.
Remastered to celebrate the release, Boundary Road Snacks and Drinks and Sweet Princess will be pressed as one single vinyl. The former will be available on cassette for the first time and include an exclusive bonus single, a demo of New Long Leg single, ‘Strong Feelings’, recorded during the sessions for Boundary Road Snacks and Drinks.
The EPs will be reissued on single vinyl featuring with original artwork and lyric sheet. Boundary Road Snacks and Drinks / Sweet Princess will be available digitally, on standard black LP, transparent blue LP (indie variant), CD and cassette from 8 March.
