Emerging on the national scene as a 2011 American Idol finalist, Haley Reinhart released earlier this year a mesmerizing LP "Lo-Fi Soul". She describes it by stating "Lo-fi reflects my analog heart, while the soul reveals untold stories that I want you all to experience with me".
Lo-Fi Soul" is a career watermark with stripped-down production that works well with material that has a bluesy and jazzy feel. She has a deeply emotive vocal style which shines throughout and the entire LP is a highly entertaining listen.
Intrigued by the sound of "Lo-Fi Soul", I decided to catch Haley Reinhart live in concert at the Wonder Bar in Asbury Park, N.J. last October. Her performance exceeded all expectations and I ended up witnessing one of the best live performances by a female artist in recent memory. A charismatic performer, from the moment she hit the stage her enormous talent shone through. Backed by a tight band that played with gusto, she proved to be magnetic and nailed each track seamlessly. This is an artist I forward to hearing what is forthcoming in 2020.
