Jack Antonoff Reveals Taylor Swift's Secret to Selling Over 1M Albums

Jack Antonoff of the band Bleachers has worked with Taylor Swift producing/co-writing on her successful new album redemption.

In an interview at Philly's Radio 104.5, Jack revealed the secret behind Taylor Swift selling over a million copies of her new album in less than a week. “She has a lot of fans,” says Jack, not just because she’s “famous”, but because her fans are true fans.  “A lot of people think that fame,  or press, or everyone knowing your name can sell you a lot of records or movies or whatever it is, but it’s not true. Everyone knows a lot of people, but, when they put out an album, no one cares. What’s always exciting to me about her is,  she has a ton of fans that like to listen to ALL her music and will buy her music.”  He continued, “That culture is amazing.”

He equates her die-hard fans to those of the Grateful Dead , and when he was growing up, Green Day, “I’d buy anything they put out.“
