About this listen
Teddy Swims is everywhere right now and making headlines that matter. Just days ago in Vatican City, Teddy took the stage with opera legend Andrea Bocelli for a duet of Amazing Grace in front of over 250,000 people at St. Peters Square, an unprecedented concert celebrating the Vatican’s 2025 Jubilee Year. The event, titled Grace for the World, streamed live on Disney Plus, and Teddy later wrote on Instagram that he was truly honored and humbled to perform at such a historic moment, thanking Bocelli, Pope Leo, and fans worldwide. With global icons like Jelly Roll, Jennifer Hudson, Pharrell Williams, and John Legend also appearing, it marked the first time a concert was held in that iconic location, underscoring Teddy’s meteoric ascent into the upper tiers of international stardom, as reported by ABC News and Mix 98.7.
Just as fans were still buzzing about the Vatican appearance, Teddy dropped a personal bombshell: he and his partner Raiche Wright welcomed a baby boy earlier this week, sharing their joy on Instagram and garnering waves of congratulations from the music community and devoted followers, according to AOL Entertainment. This arrival marks not only a heartfelt chapter for Teddy the artist, but also deepens his connection and relatability to fans drawn to his openness about family, growth, and emotional vulnerability.
Musically, Teddy is unstoppable. Lose Control, his breakout hit, continues shattering records, with over 3 billion streams worldwide, double Platinum certification, and more than 80 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, including a stint at Number 1, as noted by Waikiki Amp. On the business front, Swims is poised for an even bigger 2025: announcements from Renowned For Sound and SeatGeek reveal that his I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy tour is expanding with new arena dates across Europe, the UK, Hawaii, and Japan, including a show at Londons Wembley Arena and Tokyos Toyosu PIT—in addition to more than 50 shows across three continents, highlighting his widespread appeal.
Swims also just released his latest single Bad Dreams via Warner Records, and performed it live on the MTV VMA Extended Play stage last week—a move that underscores his genre-spanning appeal and ability to deliver both powerhouse vocals and emotional storytelling. This year he landed four MTV VMA nominations and a Grammy nod for Best New Artist, with media coverage from outlets like Rolling Stone and AOL noting both the critical and popular embrace of his evolving artistry.
Social media is ablaze with Teddy-related content, from grateful tattoo artists sharing backstage moments to fans posting clips of the Vatican performance, amplifying both his reach and his reputation for graciousness behind the scenes. Whether connecting through viral live sets, personal announcements, or high-profile collaborations, Teddy Swims is not simply in the headlines—he is actively rewriting what it means to be a global soul star in 2025.
