Phangs has been a key fixture in the scene for well over 15 years, initially rising to prominence as a member of The Secret Handshake and Relient K, among many others.

Phangs has scored millions of streams, landed several successful TV and movie placements for his music, including Love Island and has now released 3 exceptional LPs including his stunning 2022 effort I Love Everything That You Hate About Yourself which also happens to feature a stacked cast of prominent guest vocalists including Kellin Quinn of Sleeping With Sirens,  Matt Theissen of Relient K, LOF, Phoebe Ryan and many more. Phangs has also launched a new clothing venture titled Designed By Phangs which boasts a series of eye-catching garments that are redefining alternative fashion and inclusivity.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
