Afer a meteoric rise to global stardom and due to overwhelming demand, GRAMMY-nominated multi-Platinum artist Teddy Swims announces his return to Australia and New Zealand this October 2025. Proudly presented by Frontier Touring, the forthcoming tour will see Swims perform in the largest arenas he’s ever played in both countries, joined on stage by his electrifying live band, Freak Freely.

Having amassed over 8.7 billion streams globally, Swims has captured the hearts of music fans worldwide with his phenomenal live show and Platinum hits such as ‘Lose Control’ and ‘The Door’. His recent album I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2), released earlier this month via Warner Records, has been met with critical acclaim worldwide, with standout tracks like ‘Bad Dreams’, Are You Even Real (feat. Givēon)’, and ‘Guilty’ continuing his legacy as one of the most dynamic voices in modern music. Debuting at #1 on the album charts in Australia, #2 in the UK, #4 in the USA and New Zealand, Swims’ latest 13-track offering also smashed the Top 10 in Austria, Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Scotland, Sweden, Switzerland and beyond.

Swims shows no signs of slowing down. In March, he wowed fans with sold-out shows in Ireland and the UK, kicking off his biggest global headline tour to date. Next week, he’ll take the stage at Lollapalooza in Argentina, Chile, and Brazil. In May, he’ll embark on a massive 50-date North American tour, performing multiple nights at legendary venues including New York City’s Radio City Music Hall, Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Los Angeles' The Greek Theatre.

Swims’ rise has been nothing short of extraordinary. His breakout single ‘Lose Control’ catapulted him to international fame, reaching #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and becoming the second-longest running Top 10 song in Hot 100 history, with over 3 billion streams globally. Nominated for a 2025 GRAMMY for Best New Artist, he also won two awards (from eight nominations) at the 2024 Billboard Music Awards. Additional accolades have poured in from around the world, cementing Swims as one of the biggest breakout stars in the industry.

The 32-year-old Atlanta singer (born Jaten Dimsdale) has proved that years of hard work pay off. Showcasing his sky-high vocal range through collaborations with artists such as Thomas Rhett, Maren Morris, Meghan Trainor, X Ambassadors, ILLENIUM, Tiësto, Armin Van Buuren, Matoma, and now GIVĒON, Muni Long, Coco Jones, and GloRilla, Swims is just getting started.

With his incredible vocal range and commanding stage presence, Swims is set to deliver another stunning tour to Australia and Aotearoa. Don’t miss out!
