Swift heightened the anticipation by appearing on two Elle Magazine covers and making an in-person appearance at the 2019 iHeartRadio Music Awards.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor Swift may have just revealed when that new music will arrive.<\/p>\n<p>As of Saturday, the homepage for Swift&#8217;s official website (taylorswift.com) features a countdown to 12AM ET on April 26 (late Thursday\/early Friday).  Sporting a new design, Swift&#8217;s social media profiles also directly reference the April 26 date.<\/p>\n<p>The April 26 date interestingly connects to Swift&#8217;s Elle Magazine essay; she identified the importance of &#8220;countdowns&#8221; as her &#8220;26th lesson&#8221; in the piece about wisdom she gained before turning thirty.<\/p>\n<p>Neither the website nor any social media profile directly confirms April 26 as a release date for new music, but that seems to be the prevailing assumption.  The scope of the campaign suggests Swift is planning something big.  The timing (April 26 is a Friday, the start of the music chart tracking week) specifically suggests new music is involved.<\/p>\n<p>Swift, moreover, has apparently been liking Tumblr posts that reference the impending release of new music.<\/p>\n<p>Swift&#8217;s next music chapter will be the follow-up to 2017&#8217;s &#8220;reputation.&#8221;  Said album era began with the release of lead single &#8220;Look What You Made Me Do&#8221; late on the night of August 24, 2017.   The album itself debuted on November 10, 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Did Taylor Swift just confirm a release date for her next single or album?","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":127136,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1047,206],"tags":[145],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Taylor Swift Starts Countdown To April 26; Fans Anticipating New Music<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"After noticing some potential &quot;clues&quot; within Taylor Swift&#039;s Instagram posts earlier this year, fans developed anticipation for that new music.
