MUNA finished 2022 on yet another career high, with the trio topping year end listsincluding Billboard, Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone, Stereogum, TIME Magazine,and the band was also named Consequence’s Band of the Year. It was a fitting way to finish the year that saw them release MUNA, a career defining record and one that elevated them to new heights here in the US and around the world.
Now they are ready to take 2023 by storm, announcing a headline tour kicking off this spring and ending at Bonnaroo Music Festival. It will be a triumphant return for a band whose live show is known for its electricity and sincerity which The Atlantic called “joyful and glorious and wonderfully queer.” MUNA are also excited to be joining Taylor Swift for nine dates on her 2023 North American stadium tour. Theyrecently covered Swift’s classic “august” as part of their Spotify Singles Session at Electric Lady studio. Tickets to MUNA’s headline tour go on sale Friday, January 13 at 10AM local time.
