The popstar in a tweet wrote, "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."
"To put it plainly, we just couldn’t stop writing songs. To try and put it more poetically, it feels like we were standing on the edge of the folklorian woods and had a choice: to turn and go back or to travel further into the forest of this music. We chose to wander deeper in, " she added.
Turns out the new album is going to have the same creative army which worked with Swift on Folklore. Everyone from Jack Antonoff, National’s Aaron Dessner and Joe Alwyn her boyfriend will have made a contribution to Evermore. According to the tracklist that Swift posted, this new album also has a Bon Iver collaboration. It also has a song called Coney Island National as her backing band.
