Creating music which touches its forelock in the direction of a variety of genres, rising-star Teddy Swims - real name Jaten Collin Dimsdale - has made a big splash in a short time, having initially built a significant following via song covers performed on his YouTube channel back in 2019 & 2020.

The Georgia-born singer-songwriter is making not one but two Birmingham stop-offs this month in support of his debut studio album, I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1). The record is described by its publicity as ‘a heart-on-your-sleeve... cards-on-the-table body of work brimming with soul, sorrow and solace’.
