Surprise: Taylor Swift udgiver nyt album i nat

Taylor Swift skulle have brugt det meste af 2020 på en omfattende verdensturné, der blandt andet skulle have bragt hende forbi Roskilde Festival.

Corona kom som bekendt i vejen for de planer, men den verdenskendte popstjerne har brugt karantænen på at indspille et nyt album, ‘Folklore’, der udkommer i nat ved midnat.

Albummet, der består af 17 numre, er blevet til i samarbejde med blandt andre Bon Iver, der medvirker på en sang, The Nationals guitarist Aaron Dessner og Swifts tidligere samarbejdspartner Jack Antonoff.

»De fleste af mine planer for sommeren gik i vasken, men der skete til gengæld noget, jeg ikke havde planlagt, og det er mit ottende album ‘Folklore’«, skriver Swift blandt andet på Instagram.

»Før i år ville jeg nok have overtænkt, hvornår jeg skulle udgive dette album på det perfekte tidspunkt, men den tid, vi lever i, bliver ved med at påminde mig, at intet er givet. Min mavefornemmelse fortæller mig, at hvis du har lavet noget, du elsker, skal du bare sende det ud i verden«, fortsætter musikeren.

Det er kun 11 måneder siden Swift udgav albummet ‘Lover‘. Siden har hun været aktuel i Netflix-dokumentaren ‘Miss Americana’.

Most of the things I had planned this summer didn’t end up happening, but there is something I hadn’t planned on that DID happen. And that thing is my 8th studio album, folklore. Surprise 🤗Tonight at midnight I’ll be releasing my entire brand new album of songs I’ve poured all of my whims, dreams, fears, and musings into. I wrote and recorded this music in isolation but got to collaborate with some musical heroes of mine; @aarondessner (who has co-written or produced 11 of the 16 songs), @boniver (who co-wrote and was kind enough to sing on one with me), William Bowery (who co-wrote two with me) and @jackantonoff (who is basically musical family at this point). Engineered by Laura Sisk and Jon Low, mixed by Serban Ghenea & Jon Low. The album photos were shot by the amazing @bethgarrabrant. Before this year I probably would’ve overthought when to release this music at the ‘perfect’ time, but the times we’re living in keep reminding me that nothing is guaranteed. My gut is telling me that if you make something you love, you should just put it out into the world. That’s the side of uncertainty I can get on board with. Love you guys so much ♥️

folklore will have 16 songs on the standard edition, but the physical deluxe editions will include a bonus track called “the lakes.” Because this is my 8th studio album, I made 8 deluxe CD editions and 8 deluxe vinyl editions that are available for one week😄 Each deluxe edition has unique covers, photos, and artwork. Available exclusively at taylorswift.com
