Hayley Williams wrapped up her Brazilian tour on Friday (13) at Espaço Unimed in São Paulo. For her second and final performance in the city, the Paramore singer brought “The Hayley Williams Show” to the stage with a set devoted to her solo career, including a chance to sing in Portuguese.

That moment came with “Zissou”, a track that had been absent from recent tour dates and returned especially for the Brazilian shows. The song appears on “Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party” (2025) and references Wes Anderson’s film “The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou” (2004). Its Portuguese passage draws inspiration from the David Bowie covers Seu Jorge recorded for the film’s soundtrack.

This was Hayley’s first visit to the country with a show devoted entirely to her solo work. Before her two São Paulo shows, the singer performed in Rio de Janeiro. Her previous visit to Brazil was in 2023 with Paramore, on the tour for their album “This Is Why”.

This time, the band’s hits were left off the setlist.

Backed by a band, Hayley moved between piano and synthesizers and more high-energy performances. Guitars, drums and electronic elements underpinned the songs’ varied sounds, spanning alternative rock, indie and art rock. White curtains, projections and shifting light and shadow complemented those changes onstage.

The setlist drew from all three solo albums: “Petals for Armor” (2020), “Flowers for Vases / Descansos” (2021) and “Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party”, a major focus of the tour. Songs performed included “Simmer”, “Cinnamon”, “Dead Horse”, “Pure Love”, “Ice in My OJ”, “Mirtazapine”, “Parachute” and the title track from her latest album.
