Hayley Williams has announced a 2026 tour of North America and Europe. Billed as the Hayley Williams at a Bachelorette Party tour, the run brings the Paramore singer to New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Nashville, Oakland, and Los Angeles for two nights apiece with additional shows in several other cities. Water From Your Eyes are supporting most of the dates. Check out the dates behind Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party below.
Earlier on Friday, Hayley Williams earned four Grammy nominations in recognition of her latest solo album, Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party. The news coincided with the album's physical release; if you recall, the Paramore singer initially leaked the album on her website over the summer before giving it a proper digital release. In a similar fashion, Williams has now "leaked" dates for a supporting tour in support of Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.
The new track arrives as Ego Death receives a long-awaited physical release (pick up your copy here). With crisp drums, a vocoder-assisted chorus, and sparkly synths, "Showbiz" is a more romantic indie pop offering from Williams. The song's sticky production, courtesy of Williams and Ego Death collaborator Daniel James, recalls the smooth, syncopated grooves of Phoenix - a fitting influence, as Williams sampled Phoenix's 2017 song "Fior di Latte" on recent track "Love Me Different." Stream "Showbiz" below.
Hayley Williams is happy to confirm that Morgan Wallen is the "racist country singer" she is referring to in her song " Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party." During a recent interview on the New York Times' " Popcast" to discuss her latest solo album, the Paramore lead singer was asked whether she would like to "name names" to reveal who she means when she sings about being "the biggest star / At this racist country singer's bar" in the title track. "It could be a couple but I'm always talking about Morgan Wallen," Williams said. "I don't give a s-. Find me at Whole Foods, b-, I don't care."
The campaign, backed by hundreds of artists and dozens of labels, is a streaming boycott that geo-blocks the music of participating acts from appearing on streaming services inside Israel. Among the initial musicians to join were Massive Attack, Kneecap, Fontaines D.C., Rina Sawayama, and Japanese Breakfast. "No Music for Genocide" specifies that it is a response to "the genocide in Gaza; ethnic cleansing of the Occupied West Bank; apartheid within Israel; and political repression of Pro-Palestine efforts wherever we live."
