October 27th, 2025 – Philippines – Out now, Hayley Williams released the R&B-tinged earworm, “Good Ol’ Days”. LISTEN HERE. Last night, she debuted the song live at Rolling Stone’s ‘Musicians on Musicians’ event at The Beacon Theatre in New York City with Bleachers. The event celebrated the release of the November issue, which features Hayley and Jack Antonoff on the cover.
The track is one of two new songs that will appear on the final physical form of her album 'Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party' which arrives in stores on November 7th. To celebrate the album’s release, record stores worldwide will host EGO NITES release parties – including events in Southeast Asian cities such as Singapore, Manila, and Jakarta on November 5th. More information and a full list of stores and cities are HERE.
'Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party' originally dropped as a surprise collection of 17 unsequenced singles. Fans took to social media, working up their own tracklistings and even creating hayleysingles.com, where thousands of fans were able to share their preferred order just as Williams had hoped. Later the album was released digitally with 18 tracks including the single “Parachute”, and has been streamed over 110 million times in the 7 weeks since its digital release. Fans can still pre-order the physical album today, and a series of live listening events have been planned in record stores around the world.
'Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party' was produced entirely by Daniel James. Williams wrote, played and recorded a variety of instruments across each of the 18 songs, with cross-project contributions from long-time collaborators Brian Robert Jones and Joey Howard, and contributions from Jim-E Stack on “True Believer”, which just earned Williams her first solo Billboard Alternative Sales #1. After 20+ years spent fulfilling their contract for Atlantic Records – a contract Williams signed as a mere teenager – Paramore announced in December of 2023 that they were finally an independent band. This surprise collection is self-released by Hayley Williams on her new venture Post Atlantic, distributed via Secretly Distribution.
Williams has released music videos for the album’s title track and “Parachute”, directed by Zachary Gray, and the single “Glum”, directed by her Paramore bandmate Zac Farro and AJ Gibboney. Earlier this month, she gave a stirring performance of her song “True Believer” on the Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.
This album puts Hayley Williams’ full range on display. “Mirtazapine” is a late-’90s alt-rock love letter to antidepressants, while on “Glum”, she subverts her own voice – using vocal presets to striking effect as the track meditates on loneliness. Other standouts include “Whim”, an easy Americana earworm with a songwriting backbone that nods to her Nashville roots, and “Ice in My OJ”, a thoroughly modern track that pairs sharp production with some of Williams’ most biting and humorous lyrics to date.
Long-time Paramore fans may quickly recognize the “Ice In My OJ” chorus, as it was first sung by Williams in 2004 on "Jumping Inside" by the Mammoth City Messengers. But perhaps all of her talents converge most impactfully on the album’s only previously unreleased track, “Parachute”. It's a reminder of Williams ability to strike right at the heart, with not only her confessional lyrics, but her unmatched delivery. The album captures all the dynamism Williams has shown throughout her career and collaborations. At its core, these songs are the work of a supremely gifted artist with a voracious, genre-defying appetite for music and creative exploration.
These songs come as the third batch of work released from Williams as a solo artist. The COVID-era saw her release two extraordinary albums – 2020’s 'Petals For Armor' and 2021’s 'Flowers for Vases'. Both albums were gorgeous and stark meditations on loss and offered up a contrast to the high-energy and up-tempo muscle she displays in Paramore.

About Hayley Williams
Hayley Williams is a 3x GRAMMY winning singer, songwriter and musician best known for her role as the frontperson of legendary rock band Paramore. With her incredible range and delivery, Billboard ranked her at #13 on their list of 50 Greatest Rock Singers of All Times saying, “when it comes to singers in contemporary rock, Hayley Williams reigns supreme”. Frequently listed as a source of inspiration from contemporary performers as varied as Chappell Roan, Doechii and Billie Eilish - she’s also appeared on a wide variety of albums and singles as a collaborator and guest vocalist including Turnstile’s latest “Seein’ Stars”, Moses Sumney’s “I Like It I Like It”, and Taylor Swift’s “Castles Crumbling”. Swift went on to have Paramore open the first ever The Eras Tour show that debuted in Arizona and later they went on to open all dates on the European leg of her world tour.
At just 16 she brought the band to the masses with the release of their album 'All We Know Is Falling' which was certified Gold and just celebrated its 20 year anniversary last week. The band’s breakthrough came with 2007’s 'Riot!', powered by the success of the 6X certified platinum single “Misery Business”. In 2009, 'Brand New Eyes' solidified their place in the rock landscape. Paramore’s self-titled 2013 album marked a commercial and critical peak, with the platinum single “Ain’t It Fun” earning Paramore their first Grammy win for ‘Best Rock Song’ in 2015 and further nominations for ‘Best Rock Album.’
2017’s 'After Laughter' introduced a polished, ‘pop-influenced sound that continued to attract acclaim with the breakout single “Hard Times”. After a long hiatus, in 2023, they returned with 'This Is Why', a full grown, alternative-leaning record that earned the band two Grammy wins for ‘Best Alternative Song’ and ‘Best Rock Album’, making Paramore the first female-fronted rock band to ever win the category in its 31-year history.
Hayley Williams bandmate Zac Farro also recently released his first solo-work under his own name. Zac Farro – Operator is out everywhere now via his own label, Congrats Records.
