Teddy Swims announces new album UGLY


Teddy Swims is ready to share a deeply personal and powerful new chapter in his music, as he prepares to release his latest album, UGLY, on January 22nd.

This upcoming release is not just a collection of songs; it is the sonic reflection of an intensely transformative period in Swims’ life. The album was meticulously crafted over the last fifteen months, a span marked by a monumental personal event: becoming a father.

This life-changing experience served as a profound catalyst for Swims, sparking a deep period of introspection. As an American artist, this experience naturally pushed him to reflect not only on the demands of fatherhood but also on the very nature of his artistic identity—what it means to create, and what it means to be.

The journey of creating UGLY is interwoven with this reflection, lending the music an authentic depth and vulnerability rarely heard in pop music. It is a testament to how personal experiences can fuel incredible creative output.

The album represents a powerful pivot, blending the raw emotional landscapes of fatherhood with Swims’ signature soulful delivery, offering listeners an honest, raw, and compelling look into a defining moment of his life. Fans are eagerly anticipating this forthcoming work, knowing that the music is steeped in a genuine and significant personal narrative.
