Taylor Swift - Midnights

Taylor Swift continues to go from strength to strength. The American pop singer has just received the award for Best Video of the Year at the MTV Video Music Awards 2022, and in her acceptance speech she announces a new album called "Midnights".

Taylor Swift has released six studio albums in the last three years. "Lover" from 2019 still showed the 32-year-old from her usual pop side. But then came corona and during the pandemic, the singer and songwriter recorded two more albums more or less on her own. Both "Folklore" and "Evermore" were released in 2020 and were characterized by a more reduced sound that was more reminiscent of classic folk and singer-songwriter music. Last year, Swift then completely re-recorded and re-released her older albums "Fearless" and "Red". Partly because there were legal disputes with a previous label over the master rights to the original recordings.

Now, with "Midnights", a new album is being released about which not much has yet been announced. So far, the musician from Pennsylvania has only hinted that it will be a concept album, the ideas for which Swift came up with during sleepless nights. She calls it a "journey through horror and sweet dreams". She succeeds in packaging the moment of "lying awake at night" in music and thus sharing it with her fans. Taylor Swift processes these sleepless situations and moments in her life in 13 new songs and invites her fans to take part in them: "Meet Me At Midnight".

Co-producer Jack Antonoff is also back on board. He and Taylor Swift have been working together since 2013 and he won the Grammy for Producer of the Year in 2022 for "Evermore".

The album is available on CD and vinyl in the versions Moonstone Blue, Jade Green, Blood Moon, Mahogany and exclusively for jpc in Germany and Austria as Lavender Edition.
