Spotify and Taylor Swift Create a One-of-a-Kind Library To Celebrate THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT'

It's a beautiful day to be a Swiftie. Today, Taylor Swift dropped her 11th studio album, THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT.

Fans had been eagerly awaiting the album's release since the star announced it at the Grammys in February. As the anticipation grew to a roar this week, Spotify was here to help turn up the volume. We brought the album to life with a library-themed art installation at The Grove in Los Angeles.

For three days, the iconic shopping mall featured an open-air poetry library highly curated to represent the direction of the new record. Each day of the activation, we revealed lyrics from the album, creating an ever-evolving adventure for everyone on the ground. Fans took to social media to share their excitement and dissect other potential clues they could find.

For those who couldn't be there in person, Spotify's socials documented all the best moments, and the album's countdown page was a source of truth throughout the week. Featuring lyrics and videos from Taylor herself, we updated the page daily with visual treats until the album launched.
