Besides “august,” which two songs were in Taylor Swift’s 2021 Grammy medley?

Taylor Swift’s 2021 Grammy medley paired “august” with “cardigan” and “willow.”

The performance connected two consecutive albums. “cardigan” and “august” come from Folklore, while “willow” comes from Evermore, which Swift released later in 2020. The arrangement made the transition between the sister albums feel natural through shared woodland, cottage, and storytelling imagery.

Swift performed with Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner, both important collaborators on Folklore. The presentation began inside a cottage and then moved outdoors, giving each section a distinct visual setting while maintaining one continuous narrative mood.

A common mix-up is substituting “betty” for “willow.” “betty” is indeed part of the Folklore love-triangle trilogy with “august” and “cardigan,” but it was not included in this Grammy medley. The medley’s third song was “willow,” the lead single from Evermore.
