MUNA's Katie Gavin shares video for new 'What A Relief' single 'Casual Drug Use'

MUNA’s Katie Gavin has followed up the release of recent track ‘Aftertaste’ with new cut ‘Casual Drug Use’, the second single to be lifted from her forthcoming debut solo album ‘What A Relief’ (due out on 25th October via Saddest Factory Records). 

The earliest song on the album to be written - way back in 2016, after a breakup - ‘Casual Drug Use’ sees Katie pay tribute to the fun that comes from making bad decisions with good friends. “This is a song about being young and on bad behavior, and the comfort of having friends by your side,” she has shared. 

“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.“
