Grammy-nominated rock band Paramore has kept their fans waiting for new music since releasing their album, After Laughter in 2017. Now, five years later, the band has announced their new single This Is Why. This comes after Rolling Stone reported in January that the band would be returning to the studio to record their sixth studio album.

PARAMORE TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE, THIS IS WHY' Earlier this year, Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams, told Rolling Stone that the band had already begun putting together their sixth album. The band, made up of Williams, Taylor York and Zac Farro, said they were music that sounded different from their earlier days.
It's really exciting because the three of us have completely different strengths when it comes to creating. It's making the music and just the whole process of making a Paramore album feels completely new, said Williams.

The band took to Twitter on Friday 16 September to announce the release of their upcoming single, This Is Why. The track will mark their first new single since After Laughter.
This Is Why is set to be released on Wednesday 28 September.

HAYLEY WILLIAMS ON THE BAND'S HIATUS Paramore frontwoman, Hayley Williams, first teased Paramore's return to music in November 2021. In a newsletter to fans, Williams praised her bandmates and assured fans that the band will return.
Paramore, who taught me so much and gave me so much to be inspired by. [Petals For Armor] would likely not even exist if not for Joey Howard, his bass guitar, and a drum machine!!
New message from Hayley sent in a newsletter about the release of Petals For Armor + Flowers for Vases/descansos deluxe.
It is a summary of all the lessons and beautiful moments I don t ever want to forget, in one place. [ ] Paramore can t be "on a break" forever now can we? pic.twitter.com/1k9uoe0usv
