Red (Taylor's Version) will be the second in the line of re-recorded catalogs and feature 30 songs. Fearless (Taylor's Version) was released in April through Republic Records.
Taylor has been re-recording her first six albums after Scooter Braun purchased her entire music catalog out from underneath her and then sold it without her knowledge for $300million to Shamrock Holdings.

She channeled her recent album covers before teasing the release of Red (Taylor's Version) as she made her TikTok debut in August.
Taylor admitted there's 'lots going on at the moment' as she transitioned between looks from Folklore, Evermore and Fearless (Taylor's Version) in the seconds-long clip.

Taylor reminisced on the albums she created during various COVID-19 lockdowns as she dressed up in themed outfits for the video on her new social platform.
She lip-synced to the song Screwface Capital by the British rapper Dave, with lyrics including: 'Six figure discussions, dinners in public/ My linen all tailored / My outstanding payments swift like Taylor.'
At the end of the clip, Taylor stood in front of a bright ring light to reveal Red (Taylor's Version) was set to be released on Nov. 19.
'Lots going on at the moment: Red (my version) vinyl is up for presale on my site and oh I'm on tiktok now let the games begin �� #SwiftTok,' she wrote.

Love Story: 'In terms of production, I really wanted to stay very loyal to the initial melodies that I had thought of for these songs,' she told PEOPLE of recording Fearless (Taylor's Version)
Taylor called Scooter out over the sale in a social media post and claimed that he intentionally kept her in the dark while he turned a hefty profit on her hard work.
'In terms of production, I really wanted to stay very loyal to the initial melodies that I had thought of for these songs,' she told PEOPLE of recording Fearless (Taylor's Version.) 'And so we really did go in and try to create a "the same but better" version. We kept all the same parts that I initially dreamed up for these songs. But if there was any way that we could improve upon the sonic quality, we did.'
Prior to the that, in 2019 Braun had purchased Nashville-based independent record label Big Machine, first taking the rights to Taylor's body of work and at the time, she voiced public outrage at being cut out of the deal.
Swift said the news made her 'sad and grossed out' because, in part, she claims Braun perpetuated 'incessant, manipulative bullying' against her for years.
