Los Angeles-based trio MUNA released their highly anticipated and career defining self-titled album to critical acclaim last month (via Saddest Factory Records) and this month they will hit the road in support of it. On August 5 they’ll make a stop in Louisville, KY to perform at Headliners Music Hall. The band is composed of Katie Gavin (she/they), Naomi McPherson (they/them), and Josette Maskin (she/they). “Silk Chiffon,” MUNA’s instant-classic cult smash, featuring the band’s new label head Phoebe Bridgers, hit the gray skies of the pandemic’s year-and-a-half mark like a double rainbow. Pitchfork called it a “swirl of stomach butterflies,” NPR a “queerworm,” Rolling Stone “one of the year’s sweetest melodies, radiating the kind of pure pop bliss so many bands go for but almost never get this right.” For Naomi McPherson, MUNA’s guitarist and producer, it was a “song for kids to have their first gay kiss to.” And several thousand unhinged Twitter and TikTok memes bloomed.
