The online music publication QRO Magazine recently asked me to curate a mix of indie pop songs in the “Knox Road” mold for their “Thank You For Being A Friend Giveaway”.

Knox Road’s second annual 4th of July mix. Happy birthday America!

I enjoy what I wrote as an intro to the July 4 post last year, so you’re getting it again. Suckas! Same questions / feedback applies. Week In Review will be pushed back to later today or tomorrow.
