I just felt warm towards him. I just felt a connection. But I really did feel like, 'You're here to do this work, and this is frowned upon here. Sh*t, I'm in trouble!” she shared about their first meeting.Osheowitz continued, “I was in a place in my life where I was fighting with myself about what I was gonna do with my artistic wants. I had really been putting a lot of that aside, just 'cause I grew up with the mentality of, 'Make sure you have stability — then if you want to do your art, do your art.' It was really nice to meet somebody who was ... just living exactly how they wanted to be.”Todd Snider’s ex-wife also praised his musical skills, sharing that despite his “political” themes, his songs were about “relationships and how people treat each other.”“I think he's just a really huge supporter of people, and people treating each other well… His relationships with all of the different people that he's worked with, whatever label or manager — he genuinely has these amazing experiences with people,” Melita noted.During an October 2025 interview with Rolling Stone, Todd Snider shared that he has had a difficult personal life for the last decade, which inspired his recent music.“It’s all heartache. I wouldn’t say I’m better, and I don’t think I’m going to get better, but the last decade was hard in my personal life. In the last couple of years, it’s gotten harder, and I felt like the title. I sat out here by myself and had, like, a dark night of the soul.”Todd Snider with Tedeschi Trucks Band Perform At San Diego Civic Theatre - Source: GettyHe also talked about battling a “painful” spinal condition called stenosis, which he was diagnosed with in 2022.
