Teddy SwimsI've Tried Everything but Therapy Part 1

Classic soul and R&B modernized without losing the retro feel. 'Lose Control' is a bluesy ballad with spiraling vocal runs, wailing electric guitar solos, and pounding drums — born from a five-day writing camp right after a breakup. 'The Door' strips to raw piano and a powerful voice, nothing more needed. Swims grew up on Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, and Al Green through his father; his grandfather was a Pentecostal minister. That raspy, soul-soaked voice conveys desperate longing with the authenticity of someone who came by it honestly.
