Essex-born, North-London-based Casual Wednesday (Natasha Petrou) delivers a scorching, Midsommar-tinged anthem with her May Day release, ‘I Wonder if I’m High’.
Born from British folklore and righteous fury, the track lures the listener into a seemingly whimsical world before erupting into a wall of thrashing instrumentation and visceral harmonies.
Petrou’s lyricism is sharp and unrelenting, exploring the subtle undercurrent of sexism that permeates through the entire female experience through metaphor and musicality. Produced in both a home setup and a shipping container, the single’s raw, layered sound mirrors its thematic intensity.
“This song is for anyone who has experienced womanhood, however they identify.”

‘I Wonder if I’m High’ is a scream, a ritual, and a rallying cry. Casual Wednesday isn’t here to play nice – she’s here to set fire to the maypole.
