Joining us this week is none other than Trevor Hedges, frontman and guitarist of Phoenix, AZ-based indie/emo outfit Sundressed. Hedges has always spoken candidly about important topics ranging from mental health, therapy, medication and substance misuse yet finds a way to channel it all through vulnerable and infectiously catchy pop songs. Sundressed have been making significant waves in the industry following the release of their 2020 critically-acclaimed album Home Remedy via Rude Records and have since shared the stage with everyone from scene legends The Maine and Hawthorne Heights to Armor For Sleep and The Dangerous Summer. In 2023, the band is now gearing up for the release of their forthcoming studio album and have already given fans a taste of what’s to come with the triumphant lead single “Bad Drugs (Feat. City Mouth),” and are also set to embark on a headlining tour which kicks off April 24 before wrapping up in late May. In conversation, Trevor Hedges bares it all and opens up about his own personal struggles during his youth and the tremendous success he has had in recovery and through the music of Sundressed.

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.
