Which three songs did Taylor Swift perform in her 2021 Grammy medley featuring “august”?

The story behind the answer

At the 2021 Grammys, Taylor Swift performed “cardigan,” “august,” and “willow” in one medley. The performance connected two Folklore songs with “willow” from Evermore.

Swift began with “cardigan,” performed “august” on guitar inside a cottage-like set, and finished with “willow.” The staging matched the woodland and cottage imagery associated with the Folklore and Evermore eras.

The medley is sometimes mistakenly described as containing all three love-triangle songs. “betty” is part of the James-Betty-August narrative, but it was not included in this Grammy performance. The third song was “willow,” a track from the subsequent album Evermore.
