Teddy Swims

Jaten Collin Dimsdale (born September 25, 1992), known professionally as Teddy Swims, is an American singer and songwriter. Known for creating genre-blending music that includes elements of pop, R&B, soul, hip-hop, rock, and country, Swims originally began to attract fans by posting song covers on YouTube during 2019 and 2020. Swims's third extended play, Tough Love (2022), became his first entry on the Billboard 200. Swims rose to prominence in 2023 with the release of the hit single "Lose Control", which peaked within the top ten of the charts in several countries and topped the Billboard Hot 100 the next year. The song preceded the release of Swims's debut studio album, I've Tried Everything but Therapy (Part 1) (2023), which was released by Warner Records and entered the top ten of the album charts in Australia and the Netherlands. In 2024, MTV named Swims its "Push Artist of February".
