Paramore’s Hayley Williams has teased the possibility of a string of solo shows in 2025, five years after she had originally planned them.
The singer’s first solo studio album ‘Petals For Armor’ was released in May 2020 and Williams had intended to play the record live on a UK and European tour that month, before plans had to be shelved amid the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
She has since released her second solo record ‘Flowers For Vases / Descansos’ in 2021, but has yet to play a sustained run on solo shows to support either release.
Now, in a message on her Instagram Stories on her 36th birthday, Williams has suggested that she may seek to put that right in 2025, writing: “I’m going to try and finally play some shows next year that would’ve happened nearly 5 years ago now. That is, if the world doesn’t fucking stop before then.”
She also thanked fans for their birthday wishes, saying “It’s beautiful to feel seen and celebrated”.
Reflecting on the past 12 months, she added: “35 felt like tilling soil and throwing little seeds down. Waiting, waiting, waiting to see. 36 is exciting and a little scary, already. So much to hope for. I’m still in the dirt, ready for whatever might grow. Fruit?”
