Will Taylor Swift Tour Again?
Swift expert has said Swifties who are concerned about whether the pop star will tour again need not worry. He told Regalrumination.com that the “Cruel Summer” songstress will almost certainly tour again soon.
“The Eras Tour was an isolated, cultural moment—spanning her entire career, celebrating the reclamation of her master recordings. What we know about Taylor’s work ethic (from the release of two re-recorded projects and a brand new album, all in the 21 months of the tour itself) is that she’s in an era of hyper-productivity,” he said.
“She’s a natural performer, an extrovert, a storyteller, and above all else: a businesswoman. There is simply too much upside in live music for her to give up touring entirely.”
