strewn heights of their 2022 self-titled record, MUNA now channel the raw, anxious, and sweat-soaked energy of living in a city (Los Angeles) of unrelenting heat, a corrupted world wrought by political tension, and the quieter and more personal pressures of millennial precarity and heartache in these uncertain times. The result is a record that feels both intimate and spectacular: a fast-paced, hard-edged dance pop world built with teeth, wit, and emotional resonance—a soundtrack for hearts on fire amidst the tumult of modern life.
Dancing On The Wall is MUNA doing what they do best: capturing the cultural moment, the oversaturated, escapist spectacle of contemporary life, and bending it to their own vision. Influenced by dance, post-punk, synth-pop and new wave, the songs are drenched in a metallic sheen yet carry a brooding melancholy that undercuts the hedonistic highs. The tension between propulsive instrumentals and the band’s classically introspective and thoughtful lyricism drives the album’s restless pulse.
Across the record, MUNA explores desire, intimacy, and connection against a backdrop of a world in flux. There’s a quiet reckoning throughout the album with how to keep living, loving, and reaching for one another while living in these times. Tracks like “Wannabeher” capture the dizzying thrill of stepping fully into someone else’s fantasy. “So What” is a somber epic that muses on post-party loneliness, while “Why Do I Get A Good Feeling” lingers long after the frenetic beat ends, the swirl of strings and vocals becoming a meditation on suspended possibilities. The album closes with “Buzzkiller,” a stark reckoning with desire and its aftermath, the ache of achieving what you wanted only to realise new questions, doubts, and hungers remain.
While Dancing On The Wall is unafraid of its darkness, it’s also a record of exuberance, wit, and communal joy. MUNA’s songs transport listeners to dancefloors where heat is friction, where longing meets the ecstatic, and where the uncertainty of life becomes a soundtrack for living fully. “We still fall in and out of love. We reach out to one another. Perhaps it’s a call to step outside the algorithm and into the richness of our lives,” the band says, a sentiment that runs through the record’s core.
MUNA were selected by Harry Styles as the first support act he took out on his debut solo tour, and have since shared stages with Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour, Lorde, boygenius, and Phoebe Bridgers. From sold-out club shows to festival main stages, they’ve grown into pop artists who command both spectacle and intimacy with equal confidence.
Their previous work, including the viral hit “Silk Chiffon,” has earned hundreds of millions of streams and widespread acclaim, alongside TV appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Late Show with James Corden, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and Good Morning America. The band also maintains a devoted following across Instagram, Tiktok, and Spotify—but their ability to convert these followers and listeners into fans who ardently follow them across the globe for their euphoric concerts sets them apart.
The record is produced by Naomi McPherson, with their trademark attention to detail blending effortlessly with bandmate Josette Maskin’s well-honed behind-the-scenes pop technique to create living, breathing worlds for lead singer Katie Gavin’s incisive lyricism and signature voice. Dancing On The Wall blends euphoric sonic landscapes with sharp, human storytelling. The album reflects a fiercely self-directed creative process, one shaped by instinct, trust, and total artistic control. It feels lived-in, urgent, and cinematic, a reflection of a generation navigating uncertainty while refusing to let go of joy. With this album, MUNA proves once again that pop can be daring, intimate, and socially conscious all at once: a record that doesn’t just capture the moment, but distills it into a world you want to inhabit.


A portion of the proceeds from MUNA’s Get So Hot Tour will go to The Ally Coalition and their work supporting LGBTQ Youth and Queer Migrants across the US.Ticket prices may fluctuate, at any time, based on demand. The event organizer has decided that resale of tickets on AXS Resale will not be immediately available for this event but may become available at a later date.
