Biography

Geiger, who lives in the Rochester suburb of Pittsford, New York, began playing piano at the age of 6 years and guitar at 8. A few years later, he wrote his first song, "Try Too Hard".This song can only be heard on his newest CD, where it is a hidden track.

First seen in national media as a finalist in VH1's "In Search of the Partridge Family", Geiger toured with Hilary Duff, serving as the opening act on the summer 2005 "Still Most Wanted Tour". His first single, "For You I Will (Confidence)", was officially released in February 2006 and is available for download. The song received positive reviews; it was called "sweetly romantic" and said to contain "sophisticated lyrics". In the song, Geiger sings that he always wants what he can't have, but he always gives it a try, even though he knows he might not get what he wants or get it the way he wants it to be. His debut album, [[Underage Thinking]], was released on 21 March, 2006, and peaked at #8 in The Billboard 200 album chart.

Geiger had a small role on the short lived television series Love Monkey, which originally aired on CBS and was later moved to VH1. He played the young up-and-coming musician Wayne Jensen, starring alongside Tom Cavanagh and Jason Priestley. His song "For You I Will (Confidence)" was featured as the theme to the show on the later episodes. He saw his record sales increase with exposure on the morning and evening talk show television circuit.

The music video for his debut single "For You I Will (Confidence)" features Laguna Beach's Kristin Cavallari. The song is also nominated for "Best Love Song" in the 2006 Teen Choice Awards. He has already released a second single, "These Walls", which began receiving steady radio airplay in September 2006 and was later released as a music video. In July 2006, it was announced that Geiger would be on the cover of Seventeen Magazine in the fall. In early October, Teddy became the first male on the cover of the magazine in five years.
