How Does Music Work? with Carolyn Kendrick (Patreon)

We’ve gotten a lot of lovely feedback on the parts of our episodes where we talk about music and specific songs (particularly our Karen Carpenter episodes and Fleetwood Mac bonus). So in this month’s bonus we’re going to continue that trend by having show producer Carolyn Kendrick and a keyboard explain how and why some of our favorite songs work.

Here’s how to enjoy this episode: We’ll be talking about some wonderful pop songs and learning how to understand music through them. When we get to each of the songs, we can’t play the whole song since we don’t want to get sued so that is your time to pause, find the song in one of the playlists below, and listen to the original.

Or don’t! It’s up to you. But we would recommend it.

And even though this has come out in April, this is our March bonus episode. More to come.

Thanks for being here, everybody. Thanks for supporting the show.
