Hayley Williams returns with a fresh single titled Showbiz, coinciding with the physical release of her album Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party. This new song blends romantic indie pop vibes with crisp drums, vocoder-tinged choruses, and shimmering synths.
Produced by Williams and her collaborator Daniel James, Showbiz features a smooth, syncopated groove reminiscent of Phoenix. This connection deepens as Williams previously sampled Phoenix's 2017 track "Fior di Latte" on her recent song "Love Me Different."
While no formal tour has been announced, Williams hints at a possible world tour. On the website where she released Ego Death, a photo in the "trash" folder shows what appears to be a routing list for a North American and European tour, including cities like Atlanta, Toronto, Nashville, Chicago, Austin, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Boston, New York City, and Los Angeles.
Williams shared: “Showbiz” arrives as Ego Death receives a long-awaited physical release.
"Showbiz" follows the previously released track "Good Ol’ Days," with both songs included in the physical editions of Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.
Author's summary: Hayley Williams introduces a romantic indie pop single "Showbiz," accompanies the physical release of her album, and hints at an extensive world tour in the near future.
