What production credit did Joe Alwyn receive on Taylor Swift’s “august”?

Joe Alwyn received a co-producer credit on Taylor Swift’s “august.”

Alwyn was credited under the pseudonym William Bowery, the same name associated with his songwriting and production contributions to Folklore. The Recording Academy recognized his co-producer role after Folklore won Album of the Year at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. His credit reflects behind-the-scenes studio work rather than a vocal feature.

Swift and Jack Antonoff wrote the song, while Swift and Antonoff are also identified with its main production. A common error is to call Alwyn the lead songwriter or singer on “august”; he does not perform as a featured vocalist on the recording. The song’s dreamlike sound comes from layered guitars, strings, keyboards, and substantial reverb.
