Originally from Mobile Alabama and now a resident of Slidell, Louisiana, solo artist Bret Crooker (aka Bret Heart) blends sampling, guitar playing, and vocals with composition and arrangement on a digital audio workstation. He's been writing longer than he has been a published artist. But any personal apprehension concerning his commitment is slowly being overshadowed by the reception his music has received. Laying down his own version of sonic commentary on the issues plaguing his life, he is both evolving as a person and becoming more relatable to his growing fanbase. His expressions pulse through the veins of pop punk, hip hop, metalcore and emo. And for the first time, in this episode we listen to several of his tracks allowing him to discuss the meanings as well as his writing methods. Join us and get to know this fast rising musician!

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.
