There's a saying: "When you're happy, you enjoy the music, but when you're sad, you understand the lyrics." That sentiment resonates deeply in this episode as we sit down with singer-songwriter Matt Weedon of The Tors, the UK-based indie band behind the hauntingly beautiful song, Anything Can Happen.

Matt opens up about the song’s unintentional origins—written in the depths of his own struggle with depression. He describes the physical and emotional weight of mental illness, the numbness and pain that coexist, and the exhaustion of simply existing when hope feels out of reach. Through a raw and honest conversation, we explore how music became his outlet and how the unwavering support of a close friend helped him hold on.

This episode isn’t just about a song—it’s about survival, the power of being truly heard, and the small, deliberate steps we can take while waiting for change. Whether you’re struggling yourself or looking to better support a loved one, Matt’s story and lyrics serve as both a mirror and a guide. Because as dark as things may seem, anything can happen.
