Fresh off the heels of his wildly successful tour last August and the drop of his debut album I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1)  in 2023, the Atlanta-based troubadour is geared up to serenade audiences alongside his band, Freak Freely.

First stop: New Zealand, where Swims will grace the stages of Christchurch, Auckland, and Wellington from July 4th to the 7th. Then, it’s off to Australia for a series of gigs in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth, from July 9th to the 19th.

Tickets for Swim’s “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy Tour” go on sale Friday, March 8th, at 1 pm local time, on frontiertouring.com/teddyswims.

Frontier Members get first dibs with a presale starting Thursday, March 7th, at 12 pm local time. Check the website for details here.  

The shows follow the wave of success from Swims’ viral hit ‘Lose Control,’ boasting 2.2 billion streams worldwide and reaching #4 on the Billboard Global 200 charts.

“I needed to write about the moment we lost our shot in order to help myself make sense of it all these years later,” reflects Swims of the track.

“Lose Control” has been a sensation Down Under, earning Platinum certification in Australia with over 20 million streams and peaking at #7 on the ARIA single charts. It also dominated the airwaves in New Zealand, securing Platinum status and landing at #4 on the official NZ singles chart.

Swims rose to fame with his YouTube covers, which led to a record deal with Warner Records in 2019. His debut album blends influences from soul to funk, gospel to R&B, resonating with listeners worldwide.

His debut studio album in 2023, I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1), blends influences from soul to funk, gospel to R&B, weaving together heartfelt stories that resonate with listeners. 

“Now I’m watching people connect with the messages and stories and realising not only are the songs helping me, but they’re also helping them too,” says Swims. “It feels like all that work on the back end, all that internalising, is finally making a difference.”
