Lorde Joins Muna for Surprise ‘Silk Chiffon’ Performance in NYC

Lorde dropped by Muna’s 2023 tour on Tuesday night in New York City. During the group’s performance of “Silk Chiffon” — their first release on Phoebe Bridgers’ Saddest Factory Records — the Solar Power singer joined Muna onstage.

Dressed in baggy red pants and a leather jacket over a black bra, Lorde rocked out with lead songwriter and vocalist Katie Gavin. As they danced, the pair sang the hit’s uplifting lyrics, a declaration of queer love: “Life’s so fun, life’s so fun/Don’t need to worry about no one/She said I got her if I want/She’s so soft like silk chiffon.”

Last month, Muna wrapped their performance at Coachella with “Silk Chiffon” and a surprise assist from Phoebe Bridgers for her verse on the song. The rest of boygenius — Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus — joined soon after. While the track released two years ago, the song remains one of Muna’s most addictive hits to date.

During Lorde’s tour in Australia, the singer-songwriter brought out Muna (the opening act) during an encore in March to perform the band’s own “Kind of Girl.” The show marked Muna’s last time serving as Lorde’s special guest on the Australian tour before the trio headed back stateside to join Taylor Swift’s The Eras trek in between their own round of headlining 2023 tour dates.
