Paramore Tease Appearance On Talking Heads Tribute Album

Paramore have announced their return with a cover featured on an upcoming Talking Heads tribute album.

On Wednesday, January 10, Paramore returned to social media and shared the first official teaser trailer for A24 Music’s forthcoming Stop Making Sense tribute album.

Last month, the trio, comprised of frontwoman Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York and drummer Zac Farro, took down all posts and images from their X (formerly Twitter), Facebook and Instagram profiles, while their official website displayed a 404 error message.

In an interview with Uproxx, the band admitted there was some uncertainty regarding to their future.

Honoring Talking Heads, the upcoming album will feature 16 artists performing songs from the band’s pivotal 1984 live album Stop Making Sense.

In the clip, directed by AJ Gibboney and Paramore’s Farro, Williams receives a massive package in the mail. Inside the box, she finds an oversized suit jacket replicating the one David Byrne wears in the original album artwork.

“I’ve got a tape I’d like to play you,” Williams tells Farro and York, popping in the Stop Making Sense cassette. The trailer closes with a snippet previewing Paramore’s cover of “Burning Down the House.”
