Actor Joe Alwyn received producer credit on Taylor Swift’s song “august” from Folklore. The track’s listed producers are Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Joe Alwyn.
Alwyn’s involvement was part of the collaborative production process behind Folklore. He was credited under the pseudonym William Bowery on the album for songwriting contributions to other songs, but the “august” article identifies him directly among the producers. His credit reflects studio work rather than a vocal feature or appearance in a music video.
Listeners sometimes confuse Alwyn’s role with Aaron Dessner’s because Dessner was one of Folklore’s most prominent producers and co-writers. Dessner did not receive the producer credit listed for “august.” Jack Antonoff created the initial instrumental and co-wrote the song with Swift, while Alwyn’s credit is specifically tied to the production team.
