Taylor Swift has announced that four previously unreleased songs will be released on the eve of her highly anticipated Eras Tour.
On Wednesday, the Grammy-winning artist made the announcement via her Instagram stories.
“In honor of The Eras Tour, I’m releasing four previously unreleased songs tonight at midnight,” the singer wrote on Instagram.
“Eyes Open (Taylor’s Version),” “Safe & Sound (Ft. Joy Williams and John Paul White) (Taylor’s Version),” “If This Was a Movie (Taylor’s Version),” and “All of the Girls You Loved Before” are among the tracks.
The songs are being released ahead of the start of her latest tour, which begins on March 17 in Glendale, Arizona.
In November, Ticketmaster was overwhelmed by the high demand for Era Tour tickets, sparking outrage when sales were canceled and drawing harsh criticism of the entertainment company’s ticket sales practices.
Following the botched promotion of Swift’s upcoming tour, which denied millions of fans the ability to purchase tickets, a group of Taylor Swift fans filed a lawsuit against Ticketmaster in December, alleging fraud, misrepresentation, and antitrust violations.
The outpouring of complaints about the Swift ticket debacle prompted a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing earlier this year, which focused on whether Live Nation Entertainment, which owns Ticketmaster and several other ticket service providers violated competition laws and should be broken up.
The Justice Department is also looking into whether Live Nation abused its position of power in the multibillion-dollar concert industry.
