Paramore's Hayley Williams on collaborating with Chvrches

Hayley Williams, of Paramore fame, has lent her vocals to a reworked version of 'Bury It' by Chvrches. 

She revealed that she has been a fan of the band for some time and was really keen to work with them on a project, so jumped at the chance to guest on the track when the opportunity was presented:

"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" Ha! I did end up getting to go on stage and sing with them and I even got to sing a verse to my favourite song off their new album."

Williams added: "I feel like Lauren and I really worked well together on the song, vocally... I was surprised how natural it felt! 'Bury It' has such good energy and I really relate to it emotionally as well. When they asked me to record the parts I had sung live with them, it was a no-brainer."

"Anytime I've worked on music outside of Paramore, it's always been something I really truly connect with and this time is no different. I'm super honoured to work with Chvrches, to know them, and to be a part of the life of this song."

Chvrches' frontwoman Lauren Mayberry added: "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. 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."
