Speaking on the matter, Swift said, “I’m actually rerecording all of my old music in the studio where we originally recorded it,” she revealed. “It’s been amazing, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.”
The singer had earlier revealed she will re-record five albums after Scooter Braun sold her master recordings.
These include 2006’s Taylor Swift, 2008’s Fearless, 2010’s Speak Now, 2012’s Red and 2014’s 1989.
