Teddy Swims did a big thing when he played at Red Rocks Amphitheatre for his “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy” Tour. This sold-out concert was a huge dream come true for him. But the best part was a promise he kept to a special man. He brought his best friend’s father, Rodney Hampton, out to sing with him on the big stage.
Teddy said he cried only happy tears for two whole days after the show. Rodney Hampton is the reason Teddy started to play music a long time ago. Seeing Rodney stand on that iconic stage felt better than any award. It was a wonderful way to say thank you to the man who gave him the first push.

People watching the show felt the strong feelings too. One person said the electric emotion in Teddy’s tears was amazing. Another viewer loved that Teddy was performing without shoes. Someone else said the moment gave them chills because their own dad used to sing that exact song.
This beautiful moment was all about the song “A Cowboy’s Work Is Never Done.” Teddy and Rodney sang the cover together, which was the promise they made years before. The performance told a soulful story of friendship, loyalty, and dreams finally coming true. Rodney’s son, Jesse, also played guitar with his dad.
Sonny & Cher – A Cowboys Work Is Never Done
The song was a hit for Sonny & Cher in 1972. It talks about how a cowboy must keep working, which is just like life. The song is catchy but also a little sad because the work never ends. Teddy Swims gave this old pop song a new life, showing how its message is still true today.
