Taylor announced the first details on Midnights on her Instagram at midnight, of course. In addition to revealing that the project will be 13 tracks long and out on October 21, Taylor touched on the theme that the music would be exploring. She also shared the album art, featuring the same sort of blue she wore in her after-party look.

She wrote of the music itself:

“We lie awake in love and in fear, in turmoil and in tears. We stare at walls and drink until they speak back. We twist in our self-made ages and pray that we aren’t—right this minute—about to make some fateful life-altering mistake.

“This is a collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams. The floors we pace and the demons we face. For all of us who have tossed and turned and decided to keep the lanterns lit and go searching—hoping that just maybe, when the clock strikes 12…we’ll meet ourselves.

Midnights, the stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life, will be out October 21. Meet me at midnight.”
