Paramore Announces “Paramore: Writing The Future”

Fueled By Ramen recording group Paramore has announced “PARAMORE: WRITING THE FUTURE,” an intimate evening of music with Paramore and their friends Copeland, set to kick off beginning in late April. "It feels right to bring the Self-Titled era to a close,” said Hayley Williams. "We've had a very personal and hugely triumphant journey with this one. What wouldn't feel right is saying goodbye to this time in the band's career and not celebrating it with our fans in some special way. So we've decided to do one last little run with it. Smaller shows, beautiful theaters... and we're not calling it a tour, by the way. Each night will be a little event, or as we said just a few seconds ago, a celebration." Paramore and Copeland come through Mohegan Sun Arena for a 8:00pm concert on Saturday, May 9th.
