Hayley Williams Finally Drops Solo Material

Hayley Williams promised fans a sampling of a new solo project last month. And on Wednesday, 22nd, Hayley delivered her first project outside of Paramore.  Williams introduced her debut solo album Petals for Armor with a  cinema-quality music video for the equally spine-tingling lead single “Simmer.”

William’s debut album, Petals for Armor, is well under way.  The phrase is alluded to in the “Simmer” lyrics. The project is set to  drop May 8th. The album will be released via Atlantic Records.

Hayley also plans to tour with the release of this album. In an interview with BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, she confirmed a forthcoming tour behind Petals For Armor. “We don’t have all the dates yet, but it is happening,” Williams said.

Williams has been posting since October on an Instagram page titled Petals for Armor, leading some fans to speculate this was also the artist name she’d be recording under; however, Wednesday’s release confirms this is the LP title, which Williams will release under her own name.
