Frontwoman of Paramore, Hayley Williams has added her distinctive vocals to Glasgow synth-pop combo CHVRCHES’ single Bury It. The song opens with CHVRCHES vocalist Lauren Mayberry and is followed up by Williams’ verse and the two make a formidable singing duo.
Williams has had considerable independent success from collaborations with Zedd and BoB.
Mayberry was delighted to work with long-time inspiration Williams; “We are all big fans of Paramore – musically, and in terms of the ethos of the band and the way they connect with their fanbase – but I also hugely admire Hayley as a vocalist and lyricist,” Mayberry admitted, “It always feels like she puts so much of herself into her music and that’s something we aspire to as well. Hayley is such a unique voice and having her be a part of something Chvrches wrote is incredibly exciting.”
Williams said she was more than willing to collaborate with the electro trio; “It’s been the coolest getting to know Chvrches after having been a fan of the band for a while. When they came to Nashville last year and we talked about hanging at their show, on the inside I was like, ‘Please, please ask me to sing with you?’.”
The revised edition of ‘Bury It’ is taken from CHVRCHES’ second studio album, Every Open Eye.
