Hayley Williams has sparked excitement among her fans with a hint that her long-delayed solo tour may finally happen in 2025. The Paramore frontwoman, who had to cancel her first solo trek in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, shared the news in an Instagram story marking her 36th birthday, where she looked ahead to the coming year.
“I’m going to try and finally play some shows next year that would’ve happened nearly 5 years ago now,” Williams wrote, adding with her signature humor, “That is, if the world doesn’t f—ing stop before then. Here’s hoping.”
Williams had initially announced the tour in March 2020 in support of her debut solo album Petals for Armor. At the time, she expressed both excitement and nervousness, writing, “Wow. I am going on tour. Myself. It’s not Paramore and truthfully, it’s just a little terrifying.” Despite the uncertainty, she had emphasized how meaningful the experience would be, saying, “There was a time I thought I wouldn’t tour Petals for Armor. What a joke. I must.”
As she reflects on her upcoming year, Williams also shared a philosophical view on turning 36, comparing it to the growth process of a seed: “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?”
While the specifics of the tour remain unclear, Williams’ teaser hints at a new chapter in her career, offering fans a glimmer of what may be an unforgettable solo journey.
