The Recording Academy recognized Joe Alwyn as a co-producer of Taylor Swift’s “august.”
Swift and Jack Antonoff are the producers named in Folklore’s liner notes, while Alwyn received co-producer recognition from the Recording Academy after Folklore won Album of the Year at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.
Alwyn worked with Swift under the pseudonym William Bowery on several Folklore songs, but “august” has a separate production-credit detail that can cause confusion. He is not the song’s credited co-writer; Swift and Antonoff wrote it.
This distinction illustrates why album liner notes and award-body credits can differ. A performer may have a formal studio credit, an award eligibility credit, or both, and those records are not always presented identically.
