It is no secret that both Swift and Williams have been close friends since their teens, so perhaps it was no surprise to see the pair team up as part of the Eras Tour which lands in the UK and Europe next June.
However, while they are listed as support for the show, Paramore are already a band that have been selling out arenas on their own merit since their humble beginnings as fresh faced teens from Franklin, Tennessee.
It has been almost 20 years since they first arrived on the scene and, album by album, the band has grown into a monster of an act that is heralded by music critics for their song writing ability and epic live shows.
So, whether you're a long time Paramore fan or will be hearing them for the first time on the Eras tour, we have put together 10 tracks that tell their story through the medium of song, from 2005's 'All We Know Is Falling' to their latest release 'This Is Why'.
9. 'This Is Why' from the album This Is Why (2023)
Yep. It is so far removed from 'old' Paramore that it is barely recognisable, however, the lead track from their latest release felt like a culmination of the sound Williams, guitarist Taylor York and drummer Zac Farro had been aiming for since 2017. Like the album, it is lyrically deep, sometimes dark and as alternative rock as you can get. This is Paramore in 2023 - and it's great. | Getty Images
10. 'You First' from the album This Is Why (2023)
Used as an opener on their most recent UK tour, You First is perhaps the most interesting insight into Hayley Williams as an individual. The song, which goes deep on choosing good over evil, expectations and reality is laced with thoughtful lyrics, a killer guitar line and just brilliant songwriting. Paramore are at their top of their game with You First. | Getty Images
