“To put it plainly, we just couldn’t stop writing songs. To try and put it more poetically, it feels like we were standing on the edge of the folklorian woods and had a choice: to turn and go back or to travel further into the forest of this music. We chose to wander deeper in,” she wrote.

The news comes weeks after Swift surprised fans with a Disney+ special, folklore: the long pond studio sessions, featuring songs from her first surprise album in 2020. In anticipation and celebration of Swift’s latest musical venture, we offer more ways viewers can enjoy her songs, acting, and more on TV.

Below, see how you can get your Swift fix on TV and streaming.

While she surprised her fans with folklore earlier this year, Swift knew her usual concert format wouldn’t work in the middle of a pandemic. Instead, she met up with collaborators Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner for a studio session that was filmed so fans could experience live versions of the music. The special also features a performance with Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon.
