Hayley Williams Hints at First-Ever Solo Shows in 2025: ‘Here’s Hoping’

Hayley Williams may be gearing up for her first solo tour in 2025.
On Friday (Dec. 27), the Paramore frontwoman hinted at the possibility of solo dates in an Instagram Story celebrating her 36th birthday. In her note, Williams reflected on the tour she had to cancel in 2020 in support of her debut solo album, Petals for Armor, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I’m going to try and finally play some shows next year that would’ve happened nearly 5 years ago now,” she wrote. “That is, if the world doesn’t f—ing stop before then. Here’s hoping.”
Petals for Armor was released in March 2020, and Williams had planned a European and North American tour to support the album. However, the pandemic forced her to cancel those shows as venues around the world shut down.
“Wow. I am going on tour. Myself. It’s not Paramore and truthfully, it’s just a little terrifying,” she wrote at the time. “But if I know anything, it’s that there’s no safer place (besides at home with my dog) than to be in a room, in front of the people who’ve grown up singing my lungs out for. There was a time I thought I wouldn’t tour Petals for Armor. What a joke. I must.”
During the pandemic, Williams shifted to virtual performances, including an NPR Tiny Desk concert filmed in Nashville, and released her surprise sophomore album, Flowers for Vases/Descansos, in 2021.
In 2023, after the lockdowns lifted, Paramore returned with their sixth studio album, This Is Why. The pop-punk band supported the release with a tour that included dates opening for Taylor Swift on her record-breaking Eras Tour.
In her celebratory post on Instagram, Williams also thanked fans for their well-wishes and shared a personal reflection.
“35 felt like tilling soil and throwing little seeds down. Waiting, waiting, waiting to see,” she wrote. “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?”
