Which trio is credited with producing Taylor Swift’s “august”?

Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Joe Alwyn are credited with producing “august.”

Swift and Antonoff are also the song’s two credited writers. Alwyn, who was Swift’s collaborator on several Folklore recordings, appears in the production credit even though he is not listed as a songwriter for this track.

This credit is often mixed up with Aaron Dessner’s role on Folklore. Dessner was a central producer and co-writer across the album, but “august” was produced by Swift and Antonoff with Alwyn. The song’s instrumental began with Antonoff before Swift developed its lyrics and vocal concept.

Folklore was made through remote collaboration during the COVID-19 pandemic. Its production team helped create a cohesive, atmospheric sound while allowing individual songs to differ in style. “August” stands out as a brighter, more pop-oriented recording within that album-wide setting.
