Teddy Swims is making his way back to New Zealand later this year, with two shows. One in Christchurch, with the other in Auckland this October.
During a chat with Si, Lana & The Breakfast Club, Teddy shared his dream of one day owning a house in New Zealand.
Sharing his love for Aotearoa, he explained, "It is my favorite place in the world. I belong there, it's my home."
With many trips already made, Teddy has built a strong base in New Zealand, saying he’s gained "many lifelong friends there”.
This October, when Teddy takes the stage in New Zealand, he will be a first-time Dad!
“I can’t wait to bring my son to New Zealand,” he said.
Teddy and his partner Raiche Wright announced they’re expecting a child on Instagram earlier this year.
Speaking on how he has handled his rise to fame, Teddy said: "Sometimes you get three hours of sleep, it's 7 a.m. and you're at the airport with people who want to take photos.
“What I've learned to do is tell people where I am at."
He sometimes tells people: "Look dude, I’ve had like three hours of sleep."
More often than not, people respond with kindness and understanding. "You find out how human people are; they say, 'I'm just happy to see you.'"
During his last trip to New Zealand, Teddy joined More FM in surprising a high school in Christchurch with a performance.
We can’t wait to see what he gets up to when he visits his favourite country this October.
