Rusty Williams, the 78-years-old grandfather of Paramore vocalist Hayley Williams, is to release his debut album next month.
The songs on the album, titled Grand Man, were recorded by Williams senior between 1972 and 1983, but were never released, and his grand-daughter was apparently unaware of their existence until relatively recently. Having had the chance to hear the recordings, Paramore's frontwoman pledged to help her grandad get the album into the public domain, and it will emerge on her bandmate Zac Farro's Nashville-based record label Congrats Records on February 14.
The release is preceded by the record's first single, its opening track, Knocking (At Your Door), which one YouTube commentator has already pronounced "fire as fuck!"
Listen to the song below:
