Hayley Williams Joins Deftones for a Memorable Performance of ‘Minerva’ in Nashville

Deftones welcomed Paramore’s Hayley Williams for a live performance of ‘Minerva’ during their show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena last night.
The collaboration took place during the encore of Deftones’ 20-song set on 26th March, where they are currently touring North America with The Mars Volta. Williams joined the band for their performance of ‘Minerva’, taken from their 2003 self-titled album, before Deftones concluded the show with ‘Bored’ and ‘7 Words’. The appearance marks Williams’ second time performing with the band, following a 2010 rendition of ‘Passenger’ from Deftones’ album ‘White Pony’.
This exhilarating event thrilled fans, as the dynamic between Williams and Deftones showcased the perfect blend of alternative rock and post-metal. With every note and lyric, the collaboration proved that great music knows no boundaries.
Deftones are currently working on new material, with vocalist Chino Moreno providing an update on their forthcoming album. “We have a whole record recorded all musically,” says Moreno. “And it’s pretty much my job right now to finish up the vocals. We’re not really in a rush. We want it to be great. I think that’s most important. But it is coming, and, yeah – it’s really good.”
With the excitement surrounding new music and surprise collaborations, Deftones and Hayley Williams have given fans an unforgettable experience that they will cherish for years to come. Keep an eye on their tour dates, and don’t miss out on this electrifying live music experience.
