Rapidly rising US phenom, musical chameleon Teddy Swims is headed to Australia for his debut tour that will visit Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney in the spring.
The grandson of a Pentecostal preacher, Swims first came to attention in 2019 when he posted a video to YouTube of him singing a cover of Michael Jackson's 'Rock With You' (on the tenth anniversary of MJ's death).That quickly gained a lot of traction and now Teddy has amassed 450M-plus streams globally, 400M-plus YouTube views, 1.8M followers on TikTok and 2M-plus Spotify monthly listeners.
From soul to funk, gospel to country to R&B, Teddy and his live band Freak Freely bring a genuine warmth, the Atlanta, Georgia singer's rich baritone dripping in a raw honesty. As James Cordon stated: 'Outrageously talented.'
Tickets on sale from 11am (local time) on 9 May.
