MUNA have dropped their Spotify exclusive Live at Electric Lady EP. The five-track EP includes several songs off their newest self-titled album MUNA, including “Silk Chiffon,” “Anything But Me,” and a cover of Taylor Swift’s “august”. MUNA tell us “The whole environment at Electric Lady Studios is so supportive and open, it often leads to making new creative choices while you’re in the midst of recording. “August” took on this very breathy, quiet quality that we hadn’t anticipated, but we just went with.” Last month, the band stopped by the GRAMMY Museum to perform to a sold out crowd which also included a Q&A with their Saddest Factory Records label boss, Phoebe Bridgers.

MUNA is comprised of Katie Gavin (she/they), Naomi McPherson (they/them), and Josette Maskin (she/they). Previous singles like “Silk Chiffon,” “Home By Now” and “Anything But Me” and their current building single “What I Want” have fans ready for the next new, exciting chapter. The band have most recently been guests on Ellen, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and The Late Late Show with James Corden on this album cycle and have more appearances and exciting things coming up this fall including a just-about sold out UK tour in November.
