Taylor Swift Counts Down to Release of ‘Tortured Poets’ Album With Special Number

Taylor Swift is counting down the days until the release of her new album.

On Saturday (April 6), the 34-year-old pop superstar used her lucky number to remind Swifties that there are only 13 days left until the arrival of her highly anticipated album, The Tortured Poets Department.

The “Cruel Summer” singer took to her Instagram Story to share a clip of a typewriter writing the words, “13 days until THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT,” alongside a pre-order link to the album.

April 19 marks the arrival of Swift’s 11th studio album, which she surprise-announced at the 2024 Grammys in February while accepting best pop vocal album for her previous release, Midnights. In her speech at the ceremony, the star mentioned that the project has been two years in the making.

The 14-time Grammy winner is currently taking a two-month break from her global Eras Tour trek to prepare for the release of The Tortured Poets Department. Since then, she’s shared the new project’s main cover plus details on the four deluxe editions, as well as confirming that Post Malone and Florence + The Machine are both featured on the album.
