HI. I wanted to let you know that the first āFrom the Vaultā song Iām releasing from Fearless (Taylorās Version) comes out tomorrow at midnight eastern. Itās called You All Over Me (From The Vault). One thing Iāve been loving about these From The Vault songs is that theyāve never been heard, so I can experiment, play, and even include some of my favorite artists. Iām really excited to have Maren Morris singing background vocals on this song!! āļø Produced by Aaron Dessner and co-written by Scooter Carusoe - canāt wait for you to hear it š

Iām elated to tell you that my 9th studio album, and folkloreās sister record, will be out tonight at midnight eastern. Itās called evermore. To put it plainly, we just couldnāt 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. Iāve never done this before. In the past Iāve 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. I loved the escapism I found in these imaginary/not imaginary tales. I loved the ways you welcomed the dreamscapes and tragedies and epic tales of love lost and found into your lives. So I just kept writing them. And I loved creating these songs with Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, WB, and Justin Vernon. Weāve also welcomed some new (and longtime) friends to our musical kitchen table this time aroundā¦
Ever since I was 13, Iāve been excited about turning 31 because itās my lucky number backwards, which is why I wanted to surprise you with this now. Youāve all been so caring, supportive and thoughtful on my birthdays and so this time I thought I would give you something! I also know this holiday season will be a lonely one for most of us and if there are any of you out there who turn to music to cope with missing loved ones the way I do, this is for you. There are 15 tracks on the standard edition of evermore, but the deluxe physical edition will include two bonus tracks - āright where you left meā and āitās time to goā āļø All *digital downloads* of the album will include an exclusive, digital booklet with 16 brand new photos. You can pre-order evermore now here.
Tonight the story continues, as the music video for āwillowā drops at midnight eastern. Iām forever grateful to the following creatives who have helped and guided me to be able to direct my own videos: Cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto, producer Jil Hardin, 1st AD Joe āOzā Osbourne, Co-1st AD Ev Salomon, Exec Producer Rebecca Skinner, editor Chancler Haynes, set designers Ethan Tobman and Regina Fernandez and visual effects geniuses Grant Miller and David Lebensfeld. Thank you to our medical inspector who made sure every precaution was taken for our safety. Iāll see you guys in the YouTube premiere page chat before midnight to answer some questions š§āāļø
