Hayley Williams Releases New Song “Showbiz”
November 7 marks an important moment for Hayley Williams. The leader of Paramore unveiled the physical editions of her third solo studio album, Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party. These editions include two previously unreleased tracks that were absent from streaming platforms.
Last month, Williams shared one of these songs, “Good Ol’ Days.” Now she has released the second one, titled “Showbiz,” which she co-wrote and produced with Daniel James.
“Showbiz,” produced by co-writer Daniel James, adds the final piece to the Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party project.
Grammy Recognition
The day is also significant because Hayley Williams earned four nominations for the upcoming Grammy Awards:
- Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party — Best Alternative Music Album
- “Parachute” — Best Alternative Music Performance

- “Glum” — Best Rock Song
Williams previously won her first Grammy in 2015 for Best Rock Song with “Ain’t It Fun.” She added two more in 2024: Best Rock Album (This Is Why) and Best Alternative Music Performance (“This Is Why”). Altogether, she now holds 11 career nominations.
