Katie Gavin shares new track 'Aftertaste' + announces debut solo album 'What A Relief'.

Katie Gavin (who you may know from the band MUNA) has shared a first taste of solo music with the infectious single, 'Aftertaste' - released via Phoebe Bridgers' label, Saddest Factory Records. Alongside the track, she has also announced her debut solo album 'What A Relief' - including track 'As Good As It Gets' featuring Mitski.

Gavin shares on the track: “That song takes place inside of the magnetic force, when I’m really drawn to somebody and still feeling like it’s gonna work. Sometimes it’s fun to surrender to that feeling – I think a lot of songwriters have a strong relationship with romantic fantasy...  I thought this song would be a good place to start because to me it kind of serves as a bridge, sonically and thematically, between MUNA’s world and the world we are going to with the solo record."

The full album tracklist is below:
1. I Want It All
2. Aftertaste
3. The Baton
4. Casual Drug Use
5. As Good As It Gets ft. Mitski
6. Sanitized
7. Sketches
8. Inconsolable
9. Sparrow
10. Sweet Abby Girl
11. Keep Walking

A music video has also been shared for 'Aftertaste', which was conceptualised by Gavin, alongside MUNA's Naomi McPherson.
