In this heartfelt and honest episode of The Weekly Beat, Matoma sits down with Danish vocalist and songwriter Theresa Rex, best known for her iconic vocals on Martin Jensen’s global hit “Solo Dance.” The two explore Theresa’s winding journey into music — from singing jazz on the streets to being discovered and propelled into the international spotlight. She opens up about what it was like to find her voice later in life, and how she now uses it not just to perform, but to reflect, to retreat, and to protect her peace.Theresa also shares an incredibly personal story about being diagnosed with a lung tumor — and how the experience changed her outlook on everything from her health to her creative purpose. Her reflections on healing, passion, and her persistence in the face of some pretty tough challenges make this episode one of the most emotionally resonant in the series. Through the lens of resilience and self-awareness, this conversation becomes about far more than music.The song we made “Wild Flower" comes out Friday September 19th, listen here.We're releasing a new episode and song EVERY SINGLE WEEK so be sure to subscribe and join this ambitious journey of music-making and storytelling!
