Have you checked in on your Paramore-loving friends lately?
The Para-hive has been in a bit of a tizzy lately, as the band’s frontwoman, Hayley Williams, teases something new on the horizon. But this project won’t be a follow-up to the band’s fantastic 2017 album, After Laughter; rather, it’ll be a solo endeavor, as Williams teased late last year. “I’m putting out some music next year,” she wrote. “With the help of some of my closest friends, I made something I’m going to call my own. It’s a really special project and you’ll get a taste of it in January.”
According to another tweet Williams shared yesterday, the project seems to be called Petals for Armor. She posted a very short video of nighttime forest footage that included no music, but you can hear the singer’s heavy breathing. The final shot reads the date “1.22.2020.”
Williams has also been keeping up an Instagram account for the project since October, where she’s been posting various microscopic shots of flower petals. Posters promoting the project, featuring photos of Williams herself, have also been spotted.
Considering After Laughter was such a departure from Paramore’s pop-punk roots, it’s to be expected that Petals for Armor will mark a new sound for Williams. Considering her track record for great albums, we’re stoked to hear what’s next.
