Fueled By Ramen and GRAMMY Award winning recording group Paramore released Rose-Colored Boy, the latest single from their fifth album After Laughter, on March 30th 2018.

 

The delightfully tongue-in-cheek video for the song, shot in Los Angeles and directed by Warren Fu (The Weeknd, Haim), is streaming now here.  Rose-Colored Boy is already on the C list at MTV, A list at Rocks and added to Box, Fresh, Kerrang A list, Scuzz and Chart Show TV.

 

The video has the band dressed as 1980’s US morning show hosts, with Hayley (Williams, vocals) commenting:  ‘Honestly, this is what every morning seems like. Like there's something darker just behind all the bright eyes. I always think to myself, "That's gotta be vodka in those coffee mugs." Don't you agree? Sometimes I wanna whisper through the tv screen, "Blink twice if you need saving!” ‘

 

Having previously performed sold out shows at the O2 Arena, Wembley Arena, and co-headlined Reading & Leeds Festivals in 2014, the band played 5 ‘intimate’ shows across the UK to launch the new album in 2017, including a London date at the Royal Albert Hall. Paramore visited the UK most recently for five sold out arena shows in January of 2018.
