Teddy Swims
Teddy Swims, the stage name for Atlanta singer-songwriter Jaten Dimsdale, has pulled from a number of influences including pop, rock, soul, and country to develop his own unique sound. The vocal powerhouse first found his stage presence in musical theater and as a touring musician for Atlanta-based rock groups and cover bands. In 2019, Teddy Swims began to make waves by posting covers of Michael Jackson, Shania Twain and other stars to YouTube, attracting millions of streams per video and earning a record deal with Warner Records by the end of the year. He released his debut EP Unlearning in 2021, followed by a collection of Christmas songs later that year and two EPs in 2022: Tough Love, which became his first project to hit the Billboard 200, and Sleep Is Exhausting. His debut album I've Tried Everything but Therapy (Part 1) arrived in 2023, hosting his first Hot 100-charting single “Lose Control.” Teddy Swims has also proven to be the consummate collaborator, working with the likes of Meghan Trainor, X Ambassadors, Illenium, and Mitchell Tenpenny.
