I've Tried Everything but Therapy (Part 1) is the debut studio album by American singer and songwriter Teddy Swims. It was released on September 15, 2023, through Warner. It features the breakout single "Lose Control", which topped the US Billboard Hot 100, while also reaching the top ten in twenty three countries including the UK Singles Chart.

Swims's album also reached the top ten in Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden, Australia and subsequently entered the charts in New Zealand, Belgium, Canada, France, Lithuania, Sweden, Scotland, United Kingdom and the United States.

Background and promotion[edit]

Ahead of its release, Swims released the singles "What More Can I Say" on May 5, 2023, and "Lose Control", an "emotional anthem" about "losing yourself and losing control", on June 23.[3] The latter proved to be commercially successful, reaching the charts in multiple countries, including Canada, the Netherlands, New Zealand and the United States. In an interview with The New Zealand Herald, Swims promised in an interview that he would put himself "into therapy", which was ultimately the inspiration behind the album title. He wanted to buy himself a "couple more months of freedom" and be a "traumatised little shit".[4] Asked about his favorite song he's ever written by American Songwriter, Swims named the album opener "Some Things I'll Never Know".[5] In promotion of the album, the singer-songwriter performed a live set of his songs and a cover of "Use Somebody" at Nova on August 30, 2023.[6] The record is also promoted by his I've Tried Everything but Therapy Tour, which took place across North America in November 2023.[7]

I've Tried Everything but Therapy (Part 1.5)[edit]

On April 26, 2024, Swims released I've Tried Everything but Therapy (Part 1.5), an extension to Part 1 of the album which features four additional tracks.[8] Swims said upon release, “You know, I’ve been touring, writing, and continuing to work on myself over the past 8 months and wanted to share something like a real-life check-in. These songs represent where I’m at and I didn’t want to wait till I had the whole part 2 done — so here you go.”[9]

Tour[edit]

In March 2023, Swims announced his I've Tried Everything but Therapy international headline tour, including shows in the UK, Ireland, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, and New Zealand.[10][11]
