Hayley Williams Brings Out Seu Jorge For A David Bowie Cover In São Paulo
The post Hayley Williams Brings Out Seu Jorge For A David Bowie Cover In São Paulo appeared first on Stereogum .
Paramore's Hayley Williams has spent pretty much this entire year on the road, embarking on her first-ever solo tours immediately back to back. The first was built around Ego Death At The Bachelorette Party , her LP from last year, while the second was billed as the " Hayley Williams Show " and dug deeper into her solo catalog .
Although the American leg of the latter ended last month , the tour isn't over, and neither is the parade of special guests joining her onstage. Last night, Williams heeded the siren call of "come to Brazil" and played a show in São Paulo, where she brought out the legendary Brazilian singer-songwriter Seu Jorge.
Jorge had a minor on-screen role and played a bunch of acoustic Portuguese-language versions of David Bowie songs on the soundtrack to Wes Anderson's underrated 2004 movie The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou , which Williams referenced in her Ego Death At The Bachelor Party track "Zissou." They played that song together, and they also did Jorge's version of Bowie's "Life On Mars." Check it out below.
