Some things change, some things stay the same. This week we'll see some of how that plays out in songs. My featured artist is jazz band, Dazie Mae.

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

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.
