On what date did Taylor Swift perform “Cardigan,” “august,” and “Willow” at the Grammys?

Taylor Swift performed “Cardigan,” “august,” and “Willow” at the Grammys on March 14, 2021.

The performance took place at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards and presented songs from Folklore and Evermore in one staged medley. Swift opened with “Cardigan,” moved into “august,” and finished with “Willow.”

Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner accompanied her, marking the first time the three performed together. The set used a cottage and wooded imagery that matched the albums’ fictional, rustic atmosphere. Swift performed “august” on guitar inside the cottage before the medley shifted to “Willow.”

The date is sometimes confused with the albums’ release dates. Folklore came out on July 24, 2020, while Evermore followed on December 11, 2020. The Grammy performance happened several months later, in March 2021, after both albums had been released.
