About this listen
Teddy Swims is riding an extraordinary wave of global attention, with the past week marking several career-defining moments and vibrant headlines in both music and sports entertainment. Just days ago, Andrea Bocelli launched the first-ever concert at the Vatican's St. Peter’s Square, and it was Teddy opening with a stunning live performance before more than 300,000 people, a history-making event that is exploding on social media with videos and clips circulating rapidly according to Threads and YouTube posts by SounDarts GR. He and Bocelli performed “Amazing Grace,” giving Teddy a classical crossover moment with immense international resonance.
In sports news, there could not be a bigger platform in Australia this year—on October 5, Teddy Swims is set to headline the 2025 NRL Grand Final at Accor Stadium, a booking confirmed by the league and discussed all over entertainment media, with Australian NRL boss Peter V’landys touting Teddy’s vocal prowess and soulfulness in pointed contrast to the AFL’s choice of Snoop Dogg. Teddy responded with clear joy via his own social channels, calling Australia his “second home” and promising an unforgettable night for rugby league fans. The booking is dominating headlines, with media like The Music and The Nightly describing Teddy as “the perfect performer” to bridge young audiences worldwide with the already massive following of rugby league. This performance also coincides with his 12-city arena tour of Australia and New Zealand, joined by special guest Matt Corby, with every show near sellout.
With his star hot in Australasia, Teddy announced a massive 2025 European and UK arena run for his “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy” tour, beginning February in Düsseldorf and sweeping major cities like Paris, London’s Wembley Arena, and Dublin. The tour news hit just as he dropped a new single, “Bad Dreams,” and after his crowd-pleasing medley during last week’s MTV VMA Extended Play stage, where he was nominated for four major awards, including Best New Artist and Song of the Year for his record-shattering “Lose Control.” That track continues to dominate globally, newly double-platinum with over 3 billion streams and marking his arrival at the top of the Billboard Hot 100.
In personal developments, Teddy’s relationship with singer Raiche Wright remains the subject of affectionate public interest, highlighted by their social media presence. Earlier this year, they revealed they are expecting their first child together, with heartwarming posts and media like People and the Pucker Up podcast reporting on their support for each other’s careers, their matching tattoos, joint performances, and a healthy supportive partnership. The guardian angle blends with career headlines, as fans respond positively to this new chapter of fatherhood. No unconfirmed rumors or controversy have surfaced this week—just an undeniable, sustained rise, solidifying Teddy Swims as a global voice whose impact on soul, pop, and live performance is only getting more significant.
