Everything we know about Taylor Swift's new music
Fans are eager to hear more
Now that Taylor Swift's epic 'Eras' tour has finished, which saw her travel the world and come to the UK not once, but twice on her career defining tour, there has been much excitement amongst fans as to what could be next for the 35-year-old singer.
When will Taylor Swift release new music?
It's the question that all fans are asking, but Taylor has not revealed if or when she will be releasing new music. However, the singer is a musical powerhouse, so we suspect she'll be back in the studio soon, if not already.
Back in June 2024, a source told the Daily Mail that the singer was already working on new music and intended to tour again in 2026. The insider told the publication: "Taylor is working on a new record which is due out in 2025 followed by a new tour in 2026." However the singer herself has not revealed any details of new music or a tour.
Taylor's boyfriend Travis Kelce recently hinted at the possibility of new songs during an interview, sparking excitement among fans. Speaking to American sports broadcaster Pat McAfee, Travis was asked if Taylor was going to release new music, to which he replied: "There might be a few (songs). I don’t know. There might be a few."
When pushed by Pat, asking if he'd heard any new songs, Travis said: "You know, I can't say, you know I can't say. I hear music everywhere."
Will there be a 12th studio album?
There is much speculation about Taylor's 12th studio album, often referred to as 'TS12'. While details remain under wraps, hints from Taylor and those close to her suggest that new music is indeed on the way.
What albums will Taylor re-release next?
Taylor is currently working through her albums, re-recording them due to the rights dispute with producer Scooter Braun. The singer's most recently released re-recording was '1989 (Taylor's Version)', in 2023, so fans are expecting her to drop 'Reputation' next, which was originally released in 2017. The album featured huge hits such as 'Look What You Made Me Do', 'End Game', and '...Ready for It?'.
There is also speculation that Taylor could re-record her debut album, self-titled 'Taylor Swift'. Released back in 2008 (2006 in the US), however it didn't perform particularly well in the UK chart. The album featured 11 songs on the standard tracklist, it was country album with pop elements including songs that reflected Taylor's perspective on life as a teenager.
