Between Coachella sets with Phoebe Bridgers, and ahead of opening for Taylor Swift, Muna showed San Francisco why the band could be pop's next big thing.
Josette Maskin and Katie Gavin and of Muna perform at the Mojave Tent during the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 21, 2023, in Indio, Calif.All three of the band’s main members identify as LGBTQI+, and throughout the evening, they showed love to their community. McPherson waved a transgender pride flag from a fan to raucous applause. Some of the loudest cheers of the night came when McPherson and guitarist Maskin shared a quick kiss on stage.
Even as Muna's Taylor Swift and Coachella shows loomed, the band seemed specifically excited to be playing in San Francisco. The city clearly means a lot to it. Muna played a set at the Fillmore less than six months previously, a fact it noted while explaining its love for Bay Area audiences. Gavin said the Warfield performance, at just over 90 minutes, was “one of the longest sets we’ve ever done in our career.
They may get that chance soon. Although Muna is opening only the Midwest leg of Swift's tour, based on the band's professed love for the Bay Area, it's likely to return to Northern California in the not-too-distant future. And when that day comes, Muna is going to need a venue with a lot more seats.
