Which two people are credited as producers of Taylor Swift’s “august” besides Swift?

The story behind the answer

Jack Antonoff and Joe Alwyn are credited as producers of Taylor Swift’s “august” besides Swift.

Antonoff was a longtime songwriting and production partner for Swift, while Alwyn contributed under the pseudonym William Bowery during the Folklore era. The song’s production credits reflect the unusually collaborative way the album was created remotely during the COVID-19 lockdown period.

There is a small crediting nuance behind this fact. The song’s public descriptions and credits identify Swift and Antonoff as its writers, while production information also includes Alwyn. Alwyn’s involvement across Folklore became more widely known after Swift discussed the William Bowery identity in the documentary and related coverage.

A common mix-up is assigning “august” to Aaron Dessner because he was one of Folklore’s principal collaborators. Dessner produced many tracks on the album, but the production credits for “august” point to Swift, Antonoff, and Alwyn.
