Teddy Swims: Everything you need to know about his two Scarborough Open Air Theatre shows

Hailing from Atlanta, USA, Teddy Swims has been putting in real work for years going from YouTube sensation to international chart-topper.

A quiet, steady grind brought him to the forefront with record-breaking songs, sold-out global tours, and iconic performances.

With a voice that effortlessly blends R&B, soul, and pop, Swims captivates listeners with raw emotion, soulful resonance, and lyrics that explore love, loss, and self-discovery.

2024 marked a record year, with multi-platinum hits Lose Control and The Door from his debut album I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1).

Lose Control reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, became the longest-charting Hot 100 hit in history, and is now six-times Platinum with more than 4 billion streams.

With more than 12 billion streams across his catalogue, Swims continues to cement his place as one of music’s most powerful voices.

His breakout success earned him a 2025 GRAMMY nomination for Best New Artist and three 2025 BET Award nominations, including Best New Artist, Best Collaboration and Best Male R&B/Pop Artist.

Support is from Jordan Rakei.
