Teddy Swims made their breakthrough with “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy,” a debut album centered on healing, self-reflection, and emotional honesty. The project, initially released in two parts and later compiled into a complete 32-track edition, gave the world one of the biggest hits of the past decade: “Lose Control.” His diamond-certified hit “Lose Control” set the record for the longest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100 after spending 112 weeks on the charts (and only dropped off the charts due to a rule designed to make room for other songs). The hit not only topped the Hot 100 and five radio formats but also reached more than 5 billion streams worldwide.
The subsequent success cemented Teddy’s status as one of the most captivating voices in today’s music scene and earned him two Grammy nominations, headlining performances at international festivals, sold-out tours, and collaborations with GIVĒON, David Guetta, Summer Walker, BigXthaPlug, Thomas Rhett, Coco Jones, GloRilla, and many others—a meteoric rise. Now, with songs like “Mr. Know It All” and his most personal release to date, “Break Up in Reverse,” Teddy is opening a new chapter. While “Mr. Know It All” draws on “the Atlanta punk scene I grew up in,” “my role models like Genesis, Sting, and The Police,” as well as “the world of R&B and soul, which always expresses exactly what moves my heart,” “Break Up in Reverse” strips everything down to an intimate reflection on heartbreak and imagines a love story told in reverse. Together, they present music that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking—raw, melodic, introspective, and extremely accessible. The new songs explore love, vulnerability, fatherhood, and personal growth, expanding Teddy’s world while remaining rooted in the emotional honesty that has connected listeners to him from the very beginning. With a worldwide festival tour, arena concerts in the U.S. and Europe, and more new music on the horizon, Teddy is entering this new era with a clearer sense of purpose and direction than ever before.
