Grammy Nominations for Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party
The album Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party received four Grammy nominations for the 2026 awards:
- Best Alternative Music Album
- Best Alternative Music Performance for the song “Parachute”
- Best Rock Performance for “Mirtazapine”
- Best Rock Song for “Glum”
Album Release and Promotion
The physical release of Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party coincided with the announcement of the Grammy nominations. Earlier in the summer, Williams had initially leaked the album on her website before the official digital launch. In a similar casual approach, she has “leaked” the new tour dates on her website ahead of any ticket sale announcements.
“The news coincided with the album’s physical release; if you recall, the Paramore singer initially leaked the album on her website over the summer before giving it a proper digital release.”
To accompany the album's physical release, Williams also introduced a new song titled “Showbiz.”
Summary
Hayley Williams is embarking on a major 2026 solo tour after snagging four Grammy nominations for her album, blending strategic self-promotion with new music releases.
