Fresh off February’s fabulous release of her new five-track EP Petals For Armor 1, Paramore wonder woman Hayley Williams is back with even more new music.
Sharing her new single “Roses/Lotus/Violet/Iris” featuring backup vocals from Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus (otherwise known as boygenius), Williams continues to show off her elegant post-rock vibes.
As far as when fans can expect Petals For Armor 2, for now, it appears that plans may have changed.
In a recent Instagram post, Williams wrote: “I had planned on dropping another EP’s worth of songs this week but after a couple days of thinking about it, I just don’t feel comfortable going through with that plan anymore. My reason being that just like everyone else, I feel a lot of anxiety right now; worries about how what’s happening in the world affects my friends, family, my peers in music, fans I’ve gotten to know because of music, and of course how it affects my own mental wellbeing.”
She continued, “The new plan is to release each song from Petals For Armor II individually — in a similar way to how I released the EP1. My hope is that in doing this, there will be something new to look forward to as the strange days roll by.”
