Love that skank?! This week we look at song bridges, and pads. We see guitar stabs used in a few different styles. I have an interesting Tango song for you, and a beautiful Blues tune with an unusual chord progression. We look at hooks, of course, and touch on fabric and functions. Let's go.

In Hits and Hooks Vignettes, we play some great tunes and lift the hood to see what makes them tick. HHV is a short-form music podcast about how songs keep listeners engaged through hooks, structure, and the subtle musical decisions that quietly do their work.

Follow Hits and Hooks Vignettes, and join me, TuneMoose Matt Bates, for a weekly short walk through musicland! Hits and Hooks Vignettes is produced by Everyone's A Star Records, and hosted by TuneMoose Matt Bates.
