In Their Words: “‘Light Breaks Through’ is a pretty straight-ahead song about the moment after a long stretch of bad weather (literal or emotional) when you begin to believe it’s over. As I was writing it, it landed naturally in these feel-good chords that felt like a bit of a guilty pleasure, and I kept having the urge to make it more complicated. But ultimately I decided that itâs right for this one to feel effortless; effortlessness is exactly the point. When youâve been struggling and it suddenly eases up, you donât overthink it; your job is just to let go and enjoy feeling good.” — Kris Delmhorst
