Muna, an American indie pop band, has distinguished itself through their vibrant performances and the profound resonance of their music with themes of identity and self-acceptance. After self-releasing their debut EP, ‘More Perfect,’ in 2014, American indie pop band Muna, comprising Katie Gavin, Josette Maskin, and Naomi McPherson, quickly garnered industry attention, leading to their signing with RCA Records in the US and Columbia Records in the UK. The trio released their debut major label EP, ‘Loudspeaker,’ in May 2016, followed by their first full-length album, ‘About U,’ in 2017. A significant career milestone in 2017 saw Muna selected as an opening act for Harry Styles’ North American and European tour dates, greatly expanding their global audience.
In June 2021, the band launched ‘Gayotic,’ a podcast under the Headgum network, featuring discussions with queer guests to foster community and dialogue around LGBTQ+ experiences. Muna continues to deliver impactful performances, including their live album ‘Live at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles’ released in June 2024, and a notable collaboration with Alanis Morissette on ‘Ironic’ at the Pitchfork Music Festival in July 2024.
