Williams will also be taking her Petals For Armor project around the UK, including a show at London's Electric Brixton on 16 May.
She says of her first solo tour, "Wow. I am going on tour. Myself. It’s not Paramore and truthfully, it’s just a little terrifying. But if I know anything, it’s that there’s no safer place (besides at home with my dog) than to be on a stage, in front of the people who I’ve grown up singing my lungs out for. There was a time I thought I wouldn’t tour Petals For Armor. What a joke. I must."
Williams adds, "It’s going to be so satisfying to feel the energy of a crowd that close again, especially while performing songs that feel so vital for me; songs I have never performed before for an audience."
Earlier this week, Williams revealed that boygenius contribute vocals to one of her Petals For Armor tracks.
