Hayley Williams has unveiled her latest song, "Showbiz," marking her return with a fresh indie pop track. This release coincides with the physical launch of her album Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.
"Showbiz" features crisp drum patterns, a vocoder-enhanced chorus, and shimmering synth lines. The production, by Williams and her collaborator Daniel James, evokes the smooth, syncopated grooves similar to Phoenix, a band Williams has sampled before, notably in her track "Love Me Different."
Although no official tour has been announced for Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party, clues suggest one is in the works. On the album’s release website, a photo found in the "trash" folder shows a possible world tour itinerary. Cities mentioned include:
"Showbiz" follows the earlier released song "Good Ol’ Days," both featured on the physical editions of Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.
“Showbiz” is a more romantic indie pop offering from Williams, with sticky production that recalls the grooves of Phoenix.
Summary: Hayley Williams returns with "Showbiz," blending romantic indie pop with polished production, and hints at an upcoming world tour supporting her album Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.
