Fans Think Taylor Swift's 12th Album Is Coming Soon — Here's Why
Fans Think Taylor Swift's 12th Album Is Coming Soon — Here's Why originally appeared on Parade. Is Taylor Swift's 12th album releasing soon? Swifties are convinced so. Beginning on Friday, July 18, Swift's social media team, Taylor Nation, began posting listening parties for all of her previous albums, starting with her debut album Taylor Swift. "Welcome home, self titled. 💚 Dive into our favorite memories on the new Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour archival site #SelfTitledEraTSTheErasTour," Taylor Nation wrote via Instagram, alongside photos from Swift's debut era. "Everything we need is finally right here by our side and to celebrate, stream the album with us at 1pm EDT today In the days following, Taylor Nation hosted listening parties for Fearless, Speak Now, Red, and 1989. On Tuesday, July 22, a Swift fan page posted a theory on X which said that the listening parties are a countdown to the singer's new album, placing the release date on Tuesday, July 29. "Debut– 1pm ☑️ Fearless– 2pm ☑️ , Speak Now– 3pm ☑️ , Red– 4pm, 1989– 5pm ☑️ , Reputation– 6 pm 👀👀👀👀👀👀, Lover– 7pm, Folklore– 8pm, Evermore– 9pm, Midnights– 10pm, TTPD- 11pm, TS12– 12am 👀👀👀👀," the fan wrote. Many Swfties in the replies agreed with the theory - though some offered alternative options. Some speculated the countdown was for the highly-anticipated re-recording of Swift's 6th studio album reputation - though the pop star claimed in May she hasn't even re-recorded "a quarter of it." Others theorized that it could be something in celebration of the 5-year anniversary of folklore, Swift's highly-acclaimed 8th studio album which released on July 24, 2020. The mysterious countdown comes less than two months after Swift announced she owns her entire discography, following a years-long public battle with talent manager Scooter Braun. "I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen, after 20 years of having the carrot dangled and then yanked away," she wrote in a letter shared via her official website. "But, that's all in the past now… I really get to say these words: All of the music I've ever made now belongs to me." 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 Fans Think Taylor Swift's 12th Album Is Coming Soon — Here's Why first appeared on Parade on Jul 22, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 22, 2025, where it first appeared.

Taylor Swift Fans Are Losing Their Minds Over Mysterious Countdown on Taylor Nation's Instagram
Taylor Swift fans don't know if they should be preparing for something big following a series of mysterious countdown posts on social media. Beginning on Friday, July 18, Swift's social team, Taylor Nation, began posting listening parties for all of her previous albums, starting with her debut album, Taylor Swift. 'Welcome home, self titled. 💚Dive into our favorite memories on the new Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour archival site #SelfTitledEraTSTheErasTour,' Taylor Nation wrote via Instagram, alongside several old photos from Swift's first era. 'Everything we need is finally right here by our side and to celebrate, stream the album with us at 1pm EDT today In the following days, Taylor Nation hosted listening parties for Fearless, Speak Now, Red, and 1989. Is Taylor Swift Teasing Her 12th Album? Breaking Down Possible Easter Eggs From Outfit Clues and More Swifties instantly speculated that the mysterious countdown was pointing to something — which some believe could be a new album. On Tuesday, July 22, a Swift, 35, fan page posted a possible theory on X that involves the singer releasing her 12th studio album on Tuesday, July 29. 'Debut- 1pm ☑️ Fearless- 2pm ☑️ , Speak Now- 3pm ☑️ , Red- 4pm, 1989- 5pm ☑️ , Reputation- 6 pm 👀👀👀👀👀👀, Lover- 7pm, Folklore- 8pm, Evermore- 9pm, Midnights- 10pm, TTPD- 11pm, TS12- 12am 👀👀👀👀,' they wrote.

'WELCOME HOME: the documentary of her getting her masters back?!??!?!' one user wrote on Taylor Nation's Instagram post on Tuesday, while another shared, 'These have all been tour pics.

Taylor Swift's Instagram countdown sends fans into frenzy of speculation
It's been 533 days since Taylor Swift has released an album and new social media posts by the singer's company have the fandom running amok with theories that new music is imminent. On July 18, Taylor Nation posted a new archive section of her website that includes 15 tabs for each of her albums (11 original recordings and four rerecords). Under each era are awards, concerts and 13 photos of the singer from the time. Swift's "Speak Now" song "Mine" was used in reference to Swift buying back her masters and regaining complete ownership over her entire discography. "The best thing that has ever been ours is finally home," the caption read. While fans scoured every pixel of the website update for clues to her next project, Taylor Nation posted a second carousel referencing the artist's first era. "Welcome home, self titled," the account captioned. "Everything we need is finally right here by our side and to celebrate, stream the album with us at 1pm EDT today." Fans flocked to Stationhead, a streaming site to congregate, chat and simultaneously listen to her first album. Some influencers like Ty Wilson theorized that she would drop the rerecorded version of her debut era, which she admitted in a letter to fans is complete. "I really like how it sounds now," Swift teased. On July 19, Swift's team posted another listening party for her second album, "Fearless." Instead of streaming at 1 p.m., the party would start at 2 p.m. On July 20, they announced a listening party for her third album, "Speak Now," at 3 p.m. And like clockwork, on July 21, they highlighted her fourth album, "Red," with a listening party at 4 p.m. What's unknown is how the countdown will unfold and what, if anything, it's leading to. One could surmise it will go like this: July 22: "1989" at 5 p.m. July 23: "Reputation" at 6 p.m. July 24: "Lover" at 7 p.m. July 25: "Folklore" at 8 p.m. July 26: "Evermore" at 9 p.m. July 27: "Midnights" at 10 p.m. July 28: "The Tortured Poets Department" at 11 p.m. However, the singer's team may stop at a "Reputation" listening party, because the posts keep teasing "welcome home" and only her first six albums were purchased back from Shamrock Capital. Another question is will the countdown include the rerecorded versions of "Fearless (Taylor's Version)," "Red (Taylor's Version)," "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" and "1989 (Taylor's Version)"? Taylor Swift fans failed to manifest 'Reputation' news at American Music Awards What fans think it could mean As Wilson pointed out in one of his theory videos, in the caption of the post about her first album, the singer's team included a lyric from her 12th song, "I'm Only Me When I'm With You": "Everything I need is right here by my side." He believes she may be hinting to her 12th era and adds Thursday's date of 7/24 adds up to 13 (7+2+4), which is a metric the singer has used in the past for announcements. On the third post, fan Tyler Conroy said, "the countdown is countdowning..." Reagan Baylee added, "OK HI OFFICIAL COUNTDOWN HELP 🤡🤡🤡." It's possible Swift is reliving the Eras Tour as a countdown to a documentary series or movie about the tour. Fans spotted camera crews following the singer from Europe back to North America last year with the majority of production cameras at her final stop in Vancouver. Fan Kelly Ann offered a frustrating scenario: "I swear to god if all this is just a countdown to a merch drop." The hoopla could also lead to nothing. The fandom went down a mythologizing blackhole for two years thinking "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" would be announced at the tail end of the Eras Tour, at the Grammys, at the iHeartRadio Music Awards and at the American Music Awards. Swift said in her letter, "Full transparency, I haven't even re-recorded a quarter of it" and "there will be a time (if you're into the idea) for the unreleased vault tracks from that album to hatch."
