Could Riley Green's Next Dream Collaboration Be His Most Unexpected Yet?

Riley Green is no stranger to successful collaborations, but his latest dream pairing has caught the attention of fans for all the right reasons.

While attending the American Music Awards, the Alabama native revealed that if he could choose an artist to record with in the future, he'd look beyond the country genre and towards one of the biggest voices in music right now: Teddy Swims.

Speaking on the red carpet ahead of the ceremony, Green praised the singer's versatility and vocal ability, admitting he's a big fan of what Swims brings to the table.

Known for blending pop, soul, R&B and country influences, Teddy Swims has built a reputation as one of music's most distinctive voices. His chart-topping hit "Lose Control" helped introduce him to audiences around the world, while collaborations with artists across multiple genres have showcased his ability to adapt to almost any style.

That's exactly what appeals to Green.

The country star explained that he believes Swims could sing just about anything, adding that he'd love the opportunity to find the right country song for the pair to record together.

It's an intriguing prospect. While Green has built his career on traditional country storytelling and Southern influences, Swims' soulful delivery could create a fresh dynamic that would appeal to fans of both artists.

The conversation came during a busy weekend for Green, who also discussed his upcoming role as a coach on the next season of The Voice. Joining Kelly Clarkson, Adam Levine and Queen Latifah on the judging panel, Green is set to become one of country music's newest faces on primetime television.

With a new single, "Think As You Drunk," also arriving this week, it's clear there's plenty happening in the Riley Green camp.

Whether a collaboration with Teddy Swims ever becomes reality remains to be seen, but it's certainly a pairing that would spark plenty of interest. Bringing together one of country music's most popular modern traditionalists and one of pop music's most versatile vocalists could make for a collaboration that few saw coming, but many would be eager to hear.
