'Music for Pleasure'
"Knox may be the name of an unflavored gelatin, but
it's now also the name of a musician of the highest order." Check out the
latest review by Todd Beemis in the reviews.

Knox's 'Hold On to Me'
Track 7 on 'Music for Pleasure' is getting major airplay on XM Satellite
Radio Ch.75. It's the HEAR Music Station that is aired nationally.
We have heard from grocery stores, a picture frame shop in Calgary and in
Starbucks Coffee shops all over. Check out the song in the

Knox delivers 'Music for
Pleasure'
Upon "Music for Pleasure's” release in 2005, Knox had been playing the
stripped-down, folk-tinged rock card to excess. With his first release,
it seems, the multi-instrumentalist’s diverse influences have presence.
By using a more Brit-pop approach to his catalogue, Knox has created a
noteworthy first album. Despite the sunny quality and catchiness
of most of the songs, Knox's words set the tone of the album, and the
listener soon realizes not to trust the lyrical voice, as on "Baby!
Baby! Baby!" and "Rendered." The album's centerpiece, however, is
"Asleep at the Wheel," featuring a dissonant guitar section that just
may be the most transcendent musical moment of the record. It's
surprisingly consistent mix, too. From the drum-driven first track "I
Want to Take Your Money and Run" to the brooding closer "Shall I Drive?"
everything here is outstanding.
