Teddy is all about human connection, he believes we all need to be viewed as the individuals we are and is a rarity in the music industry today.

“There are no categories, no stereotypes. Until we see every person as an individual, we will never reach unity.” Said Teddy.

Throughout the whole performance, Teddy’s emotions bleed into the music and make the song undeniable

Anyone with blood running through their veins will be moved by this, Bonnie Raitt would be more than proud. Teddy’s vocal range is phenomenal, he goes from high notes to low notes with ease all while his raspy voice adds some extra flavor.

It’s obvious that he belongs in the spotlight, I have a feeling will be seeing this outstanding singer in the mainstream charts in no time.
