Taylor Swift is releasing her ninth studio album at midnight.
“Evermore” has 15 tracks and is a follow-up to “Folklore” which was released in July.
Swift’s “Folklore” was the first music album to sell a million copies in 2020.
I’m elated to tell you that my 9th studio album, and folklore’s sister record, will be out tonight at midnight eastern. It’s called evermore.

Ever since I was 13, I’ve been excited about turning 31 because it’s my lucky number backwards, which is why I wanted to surprise you with this now. You’ve all been so caring, supportive and thoughtful on my birthdays and so this time I thought I would give you something! pic.twitter.com/wATiVSTpuV

“I’ve never done this before,” said Swift, a Universal Music Group artist. “In the past I’ve always treated albums as one-off eras and moved onto planning the next one after an album was released. There was something different with folklore. In making it, I felt less like I was departing and more like I was returning.”
Like “Folklore,” “Evermore” has been cowritten and coproduced by Jack Antonoff and the National’s Aaron Dessner. Bon Iver returns for the title track “Evermore,” the National is featured on “Coney Island” and Haim appears on a song called “No Body, No Crime.”
“Folklore” was the first music album to sell a million copies in 2020 in the U.S. It was also her ninth album to reach that milestone.
