Hayley Williams Announces First Solo Tour

“Wow. I am going on tour. Myself. It’s not Paramore and truthfully, it’s just a terrifying,” she said in a statement. “But if I know anything, it’s that there’s no safer place (besides at home with my dog) than to be in a room, in front of the people who’ve grown up singing my lungs out for. There was a time I thought I would tour Petals for Armor. What a joke. I must.”

The tour kicks off on May 13 in Amsterdam, with North American dates slated to begin on May 28 with a show in Seattle. The outing is scheduled to wrap up on June 29 in Nashville, where the singer grew up; Arlo Parks will open the shows.

“The first run of shows is going to be hot, sweaty, and intimate,” Williams explained. “My brand-newly-formed band I will be playing rooms that Paramore outgrew a decade ago. It’s going to be so satisfying to feel the energy of a crowd that close again, especially while performing songs that feel so vital for me; songs I have never performed before for an audience.”

The singer released “Simmer,” the first single from the album on Jan. 22; the full set is slated to drop on May 8 and is available for pre-order now. Her solo endeavor comes after Paramore, which formed in 2004, announced on Sept. 4 that they were going on hiatus.
