At which Grammy ceremony did Folklore, the album containing Taylor Swift’s “august,” win Album of the Year?

Folklore, the album containing Taylor Swift’s “august,” won Album of the Year at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.

The ceremony took place in 2021 and honored music released during the preceding eligibility period. Folklore’s win was significant because it made Swift the first woman to win Album of the Year three times.

The award also affected the credited history of “august.” The Recording Academy recognized Joe Alwyn as a co-producer of the track after the album received the prize. That credit is why Alwyn appears in discussions of the song’s production even though the initial liner-note production credits emphasized Swift and Jack Antonoff.

The award should not be confused with Swift’s live performance of “august” at the same ceremony. The song was performed during the broadcast, while the Album of the Year prize recognized Folklore as an album.
