Who was credited as a co-producer of Taylor Swift’s “august”?

The story behind the answer

Joe Alwyn was credited as a co-producer of Taylor Swift’s “august.” The song was written and produced by Swift and Jack Antonoff, with Alwyn receiving co-producer recognition for his contribution.

Alwyn worked on Folklore under the pseudonym William Bowery. Although the album’s liner notes credited Swift and Antonoff as the producers of “august,” the Recording Academy recognized Alwyn as a co-producer after Folklore won Album of the Year at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.

This credit is often confused with the song’s principal production credits. Jack Antonoff remains the key collaborator associated with the track’s instrumental foundation, while Swift wrote the lyrics. Aaron Dessner was another important Folklore producer, but he was not the credited co-producer of “august.”
