Taylor Swift


Taylor Swift’s eighth studio album is a surprise
for various reasons – from its arrival just
hours after its announcement on Twitter to
the album’s thoughtful and reflective sound.
However, the romance and heartbreak
entwined throughout much of her back
catalog remain present.

FIVE FACTS:



  1. This album was written and recorded
    remotely during the early months of the
    COVID-19 pandemic.

  2. The album arrives less than a year after
    Swift’s previous studio album, Lover.

  3. The lead single from folklore, “cardigan”, has
    been likened to the material of Lana Del Rey.

  4. The single’s video was directed by
    Swift herself.

  5. Meanwhile, “exile”, a duet with indie folk
    band Bon Iver’s founder Justin Vernon,
    focuses on doomed relationships.
