Which producer worked with Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn on “august”?

Jack Antonoff worked with Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn as a producer on “august.”

The track’s production credits connect three important figures in the Folklore era. Swift and Antonoff are credited with producing the song, with Joe Alwyn also receiving a production credit. Antonoff additionally co-wrote the song with Swift.

Antonoff’s production style on Folklore favors atmosphere, muted textures, and layered instrumentation rather than the more overtly polished dance-pop approach heard on some of Swift’s earlier albums. That approach suits “august,” whose sound mirrors its wistful, half-remembered story.

Aaron Dessner is another prominent Folklore collaborator, but he was not the producer named alongside Swift and Alwyn for “august.” Confusing the two producers is easy because Dessner worked extensively on the album’s other songs.
