When Monday night hit San Francisco’s music scene, the audience got a taste of something unprecedented. Curry took to the stage with Paramore, joining them to perform their hit song “Misery Business.”
“You know us and Steph, we go back a few years,” said frontwoman Hayley Williams, delivering a line that hinted at the unseen friendship between a sports icon and a rock band. “Tonight is our reunion,” she elaborated, “Tonight we’re going to sing something together. Listen, from the moment Steph takes the mic, this is no longer a Paramore show, this is a Steph Curry show.”
Now, for those who might not be well-versed in Paramore’s music, this Tennessee-based rock band has been making waves in the industry since 2004. Known for their energetic performances and Hayley’s iconic voice, the connection between Steph and Paramore may appear odd, but it’s nothing short of sensational. Watch a clip below:
