Unlearning - Teddy Swims

2021 release. Teddy Swims contains multitudes. It's right there in his name- "Swims" is an acronym for "Someone Who Isn't Me Sometimes," and it's a kind of shorthand for everything he stands for. There's the fact that his voice sounds cozy and rich over any of the many genres he loves to mix up, from the pop and soul most have heard, on to gospel, hip-hop, and hard rock. But it's even bigger than the Atlanta singer and songwriter's rich baritone. To Teddy, the concept goes beyond his art, it means empathy, connection, using music to serve a greater good, and staying true to your people-in his case, a core group of about a dozen buds, bandmates, producers, and other various visionaries who knew him well before he became Teddy Swims.
