MUNA's Katie Gavin shares new single 'Casual Drug Use'

With her eagerly-awaited debut album set to land in the coming months, MUNA's Katie Gavin has now dropped the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Casual Drug Use' comes accompanied by a stunning self-directed video, and follows on from the previously shared lead track 'Aftertaste' in previewing her first solo LP 'What A Relief', which is out on the 25th October via Saddest Factory.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, “This is a song about being young and on bad behavior, and the comfort of having friends by your side. I wrote it in 2016 after a day trip I took with a friend, and so I thought it would be sweet to film the video on a road trip I had planned with my childhood best friend. The different colored potions in the video are meant to be a stand-in for whatever external substance we use to change our internal states.“
