Aotearoa/New Zealand singer-songwriter Lukas Mayo, also known as Pickle Darling shares the title track Laundromat, which finds echoes of bittersweet emo and power-pop peeking through their folk formula. It’s accompanied by a colourful, cartoony lyric video put together by Mayo and their partner Christiane Shortal,
which helps to enhance the song’s nostalgic flavour.
Their forthcoming LP Laundromat is out this Friday, June 16, 2023 on Father/Daughter Records.
On the track, Mayo offers: "I had the album title before I wrote this song,
strangely! One of the initial ideas of the album was to write like, “mundane
hymns” and this was one of the first I wrote with that in mind. I was going to
write everyday kinds of songs about the world from the perspective of various
objects, and this one was from a washing machine’s perspective. It’s a pretty
terrible concept that I’ll probably revisit one day when I’m out of ideas."
