Murray & The Movers’ new single ‘Dirty Laundry’ doesn’t arrive swinging for attention so much as drift into the room like smoke curling beneath scuzzy lights, all slow-burning blues, lingering tension and late-night atmosphere. Fronted by Lizzie Mack, whose vocal moves effortlessly between bruised intimacy and controlled force, the song settles into a darker and more cinematic space than many contemporary blues-rock releases dare to occupy.

At the centre of it all is restraint. Murray Cook’s guitar work avoids unnecessary flash, instead allowing every note to hang heavily in the air while Mack guides the song through its shadowy corners. There’s a tangible sense of narrative throughout ‘Dirty Laundry’, as though the track is revealing fragments of some half-forgotten story without ever fully explaining itself. It simmers patiently rather than exploding, pulling listeners deeper into its world with every passing minute.

Following the release, Lizzie Mack and Murray Cook will take the project to Spain in summer 2026 for a run of intimate duo performances stretching from Madrid to Barcelona, bringing the stripped-back chemistry of these recordings into small rooms built for exactly this kind of music.
