Which Disney+ film features Taylor Swift performing “august” in a stripped-down session?

Taylor Swift performs “august” in the Disney+ film Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions.

The documentary concert film was released on November 25, 2020, several months after Folklore. Swift performs songs from the album in an intimate studio setting while discussing their writing and recording with collaborators Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner. The project also includes a performance of “august.”

The film gave fans a different version of the song from the original studio recording. Instead of relying on the album’s layered production alone, the session presents the material in a more direct performance environment, emphasizing the melody, vocal delivery, and collaborative musicianship.

Miss Americana is another Taylor Swift documentary, but it is not the Folklore studio film. The Eras Tour is a concert film covering a much broader career-spanning set list, while City of Lover documents a 2019 Paris performance.
