Teddy Swims is the stage name of Jaten Collin Dimsdale, born September 25, 1992, out of Conyers, and he got his start the modern way, building a following by posting covers on YouTube in 2019 and 2020. The voice did the rest: a huge, gravel-and-honey instrument that can sound like a Sunday choir and a barroom confession in the same breath. He blends R&B, soul, hip-hop and contemporary pop, with a little country in the grain, and he plays piano and ukulele too. His third EP, Tough Love, got him onto the Billboard 200 for the first time in 2022.

Then came "Lose Control" in 2023, a slow-burning plea that went top ten in several countries and climbed all the way to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 the following year. It led the way into his debut album, I've Tried Everything but Therapy (Part 1), released on Warner Records, which reached the top ten in Australia and the Netherlands and also carried "The Door". MTV made him its Push Artist for February 2024, and Part 2 followed in 2025 with "Bad Dreams", sung at full lung capacity.
