Which studio did Taylor Swift use to record her vocals for “august”?

Taylor Swift recorded her vocals for “august” at Kitty Committee, her home studio in Los Angeles.

Kitty Committee was created in Swift’s residence during the COVID-19 pandemic, when many professional recording facilities were closed or difficult to use. Engineer Laura Sisk helped record Swift’s vocals there for Folklore and related sessions.

The track’s other recording work took place across several locations. Jack Antonoff worked from Rough Customer in Brooklyn, while mixing was completed at Long Pond Studio in New York’s Hudson Valley. This distributed process was typical of Folklore’s remote production.

Kitty Committee is easy to confuse with Long Pond because Swift later filmed Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions at Dessner’s studio. Long Pond was central to the album’s collaborative and documentary story, but Swift’s vocal recording for “august” is specifically associated with Kitty Committee.
