The band seemed excited about their new release and continuing tour as front-woman Hayley Williams made joyous remarks and danced her way through the set of weekend one.
Fans are patiently awaiting the release of This is Why, which will feature 10 tracks. While nothing much has been said about Paramore’s upcoming album, it is clear that the band will bring back some of their rock roots. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Williams mentioned that there will definitely be “more emphasis back on the guitar.” While This is Why is not set to release until early 2023, fans hope to see more content from Paramore over the next few months.
