In 2016, LAUNDRY DAY formed at Beacon High School in New York City. Jude, Sawyer, Henry, and Henry (yes, there’s two, and they share a birthday) would spend any free time they had writing songs in the basement. By the time they graduated in 2020, they’d independently released 3 albums and 2 EPs, and toured all around the country. Headline shows, festival gigs at Austin City Limits and Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw, and opening slots with the 1975, Clairo, and Omar Apollo. When the pandemic hit, the boys stuck together. Meanwhile they were making waves on Tiktok after being used as the closing song in the Season 3 finale of the Netflix series, “On My Block”. Fast forward: the boys are self proclaimed “Road Dogs,” who just drove themselves around the U.S. twice supporting Neon Trees. On stage, they donned stereotypical school uniforms paying homage to their origins.
Since the start of 2024, the boys have leveled up their social media game, doubling their audiences on Instagram and TikTok: their viral videos even got them a co-sign from Drake. As they continue to pursue their goal of playing every college in the country, growing their audience one kid at a time. For now, they’re New York famous. Next stop: The World.
