Hayley Williams (Paramore)

A solo tour from the lead singer of Paramore.

The COVID-era saw the Mississippi pop-punk queen release two extraordinary albums - 2020’s Petals For Armor and 2021’s Flowers for Vases. Both albums were gorgeous and stark meditations on loss and offered up a contrast to the high-energy and up-tempo muscle she displays in Paramore.

“The record—epitomizing vulnerability and transformative growth—reveals a more mature and introspective side of Williams,” said Pitchfork of Petals, and went on to say of Flowers “her voice is undoubtedly the standout feature... husky and gentle, dangerous yet warm,” and explained that the minimal production “makes this a purposeful reset.”
