A huge welcome back to One For The Road after a season break! Its great ti be back. This week on I am joined by Matt Willis.
Matt was born on May 8, 1983, in Tooting, London, England, is an English musician, singer, songwriter, and actor. He first rose to fame as the bassist and co-vocalist of the pop-punk band Busted, which he formedin 2002 alongside James Bourne and Charlie Simpson. Busted enjoyed significant success in the early 2000s with hits like "What I Go to School For," "Year 3000," and "Crashed the Wedding," leading to multiple chart-topping singles and albums.
After Busted's initial split in 2005, Willis pursued a solo career, releasing his debut album "Don't Let It Go to Waste" in 2006. The album included singles such as "Up All Night," "Hey Kid," His solo career earned him further recognition and a new fan base.In addition to his music career, Willis ventured into television and acting.He won the sixth series of the British reality TV show "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" in 2006, showcasing his popularity beyond music. He also appeared in various stage productions and TV shows, expanding his versatility as an entertainer.
In this episode Matt opens up about his troubled childhood and early rise to fame which led to years of alcohol and drug use. He discusses his friendship with Amy Winehouse and his years of struggling and attempts to get sober. This is a truly gripping episode and I’m so pleased to share that Matt is now 6 years sober.He also has an amazing podcast called On the Mend.
