Joe Alwyn received co-production credit on Taylor Swift’s “august.”
Alwyn was credited alongside Swift and Jack Antonoff as one of the song’s producers. He was credited under the pseudonym William Bowery on several Folklore and Evermore tracks, but the “august” song article lists Joe Alwyn directly in its production credits.
The track was made during the unusual creative period of 2020, when Swift and her collaborators built Folklore remotely and in private. Antonoff supplied the original instrumental, Swift wrote the lyrics, and the finished recording combined dream-pop atmosphere with orchestral and guitar textures.
Alwyn’s involvement is often confused with his songwriting credits elsewhere in Swift’s catalog. On “august,” the key trivia point is his production role. The song itself tells a fictional story rather than serving as a confirmed account of a real relationship.
