July 4th may be over, but since here at IHN we feel that US is moving in the wrong direction, we would like to offer the only remedy we know of! Music, music and more music – covering all 50 states via both guest mixes and mixes of our own making with marathon lasting until the end of July!
Up first is a guest mix from Grant Oliver, bassist for Louisiana instrumental rockers Guns of the Seneca:
