Joe Alwyn is credited as a producer on Taylor Swift’s “august.”
The song’s production credits list Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Alwyn. Alwyn is primarily known publicly as an actor, and his songwriting and production contributions to Folklore were credited under the pseudonym William Bowery on several album tracks.
The “august” credit is distinct from the song’s songwriting credit, which lists Swift and Antonoff. This difference can cause confusion because producers and writers are often discussed together when describing the track’s creation.
The song was made during Folklore’s collaborative, home-recording-era process. Its layered dream-pop sound reflects contributions from multiple musicians rather than a single producer working alone.
