American singer Teddy Swims has dazzled the Accor Stadium crowd with a stellar performance for the NRL Grand Final pre-game entertainment.
The singer who was nominated for being the Best New Artist in this year's Grammy Awards would open his set with his 2025 hit 'Bad Dreams" before quickly transitioning into his most well-known song 'The Door'.
He would also add an Australian song into his set list, playing a cover version of AC/DC's 'TNT'.
Swims then proceeded to close out the set with 'Lose Control'.
Reacting after the performance, SEN League's Joel Caine was seriously impressed by the performance.
"Well done, Teddy Swims," Caine said on SEN League's call of the Grand Final.
"Many people said Who's Teddy Swims?, We know him now.
"Absolutely smashed it."
The NRL Grand Final is about to get underway at 7:30pm AEDT.
