Recorded with Taylor’s U.Ok. touring band – Michelle Stodart on bass, Raevennen Husbandes on guitar, and Siân Monaghan on drums– “Dedication” strikes from delicate, catchy electrical guitar elements to crunchy energy chords, and advantages from compelling vocal harmonies all through. As befits Taylor’s constant lyrical method, the tune is about transferring by the world and relationships with the intention to extend love.

On a whim we determined to leap right into a studio in London on our break day. That is what we recorded and it was actually a outstanding expertise that introduced us all nearer collectively.”
