More about the headliners

Among the headliners at the Bud Light Super Bowl Music Fest is Paramore, who is set to release their upcoming album titled This Is Why, which will be released on February 10, 2023, through Atlantic Records.

Earlier in July, Hayley Williams revealed that the Paramore studio album was primarily influenced by the band Bloc Party. The album is Paramore’s new project since their last album, After Laughter, which was released in 2017.

Speaking on her Everything is Emo podcast, Williams said:

"From day one, Bloc Party was the number one reference because there was such an urgency to their sound that it was different to the fast punk or the pop-punk or the like, loud wall of sound emo bands that were happening in the early 2000s."

Paramore’s lineup consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York, and drummer Zac Farro. Earlier in September, the band released the lead single of their album, This Is Why, which was also accompanied by a music video. Williams, who wrote the song, described it by saying,

“It summarizes the plethora of ridiculous emotions, the rollercoaster of being alive in 2022, having survived even just the last three or four years"

Also among the headliners is Grammy Award-winning pop rock band Imagine Dragons, known for hit singles such as Believer, Thunder, and Radioactive. The band's recent work includes their single titled Enemy featuring rapper JID, as part of their Netflix series Arcane. They released their recent album, titled Mercury-Act 2, in July this year.

Accompanying Imagine Dragons will be country musician Kane Brown, who has separately announced a tour for next year. His most recent work includes his third studio album, titled Different Man, which was released in September.

The Bud Light lineup will also feature Grammy-winning American artists, including rock group Dave Matthews Band and American rapper and singer, Anderson .Paak. The Dave Matthews Band was formed in the 1990s and usually features a jam band. Their 2018 album Come Tomorrow debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Meanwhile, .Paak is one of America’s most celebrated performers and one-half of the soul-funk superduo, Silk Sonic.
