About this listen
Teddy Swims has had a headline-making week that marks a unique chapter both in his personal life and his career. According to People Magazine and confirmed by AOL, Teddy welcomed his first child, a baby boy, with girlfriend and fellow recording artist Raiche Wright on June 23. The couple shared the happy news on Instagram, posting intimate black and white photos and expressing their love for their newborn son. Raiche wrote, "He's perfect and my heart is exploding." Teddy, born Jaten Dimsdale, had previously spoken with Kelly Clarkson about the quirky way they found out they were expecting—after a stop at a Buc-ee’s and a meal at Chili’s, a moment he endearingly said led them to jokingly nickname the baby "Baby Buc-ee." The announcement was immediately picked up by outlets like People and AOL, with fans quickly flooding both artists' social media with congratulations and supportive messages. This new dad status has even prompted an outpouring of viral content, with “#TeddySwimsBaby” trending briefly on Instagram and Twitter as fans and fellow musicians alike chimed in.
Professionally, Teddy continues his extraordinary global momentum. In what may be the biggest tour stretch of his career, he is currently sweeping across three continents on the “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy” global tour in support of his latest album “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2),” which dropped in January. As highlighted by official tour platforms, recent highlights include two back-to-back sold-out shows at Neal S. Blaisdell Center — Tom Moffatt Waikiki Shell in Honolulu on September 26 and 27, part of over 50 shows including legendary venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Radio City Music Hall. The Honolulu shows see Teddy sharing the stage with local rising act Seven Suns Hawaii, a move hailed by local press as a sign of his commitment to bringing fresh talent into the spotlight. His hit “Lose Control,” now a 2x Platinum single, just celebrated over 3 billion streams and is locked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100—another historic moment that several music outlets have described as cementing his legacy.
Simultaneously, a flurry of social media posts showcase behind-the-scenes clips of life on tour, rehearsal snippets, and occasional glimpses of his new family life, fueling fan speculation about a more introspective direction in his next work. While neither Teddy nor his team have confirmed specific new projects beyond ongoing tour dates and festival appearances in 2026 at Coachella and Stagecoach, his recent onstage remarks about fatherhood being the 'new melody' in his life have already set music blogs abuzz. No public controversies or negative headlines have surfaced within this timeframe, and every indicator is that Teddy Swims is experiencing the crescendo of his career while enjoying an equally profound personal high.
