Teddy Swims is gearing up for a major run on the road in 2026, unveiling plans for his “The Ugly Tour,” a 32-date arena trek spanning North America this fall.
The tour is set to launch on September 22 in Kansas City’s T-Mobile Center, making stops in prominent arenas including Chicago’s United Center, Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena, Boston’s TD Garden, Washington, D.C.’s Capital One Arena, Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, Houston’s Toyota Center, Denver’s Ball Arena, Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, and San Francisco’s Chase Center before concluding on November 18 at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles.
Swims stepped into a new phase of his career with the release of “Mr. Know It All” earlier this year, a soulful yet upbeat track he introduced during his Coachella performance. The single reunites Swims with collaborators Julian Bunetta, Ammo, and John Ryan, along with additional contributions from Eskeerdo and Ed Drewett.
Swims explained the deeper meaning behind the song, saying, “‘Mr. Know It All’ explores the idea that love can become a self-fulfilling contradiction. When you believe you already know how it ends, you protect yourself by holding back and that distance becomes the reason it fails. But when you try to fight that fate and control every outcome, you can end up suffocating the connection. It’s about how both fear and control can quietly undo something real.” Stream “Mr. Know It All’ – HERE.
