RE: Haley Reinhart's Voice
Jackie Tohn, Season 8 American Idol contestant, as a guest commentator on Yahoo! Music's Reality Rocks (4/22/11): Quote:Haley for me is one of the freshest girls I've seen on Idol ever...That girl is a ridiculous singer. I can't even put my brain...like, when you're a singer, you have to, like, go there in your head, like Can I go there, can I... oh I kind of know I can't do that. She doesn't even have that. Like, she just goes anywhere she tries. And J Lo said that to her one night, she was like, "You don't even have a barrier vocally." So for me, her voice is so gorgeous, that I could definitely do with some less "growl." And I think that's why she polarizes people. A lot of my friends are like, "Oh, that girl that growls all the time?" And I'm like, "Are you hearing how sick her voice is under that?"

RE: Haley Reinhart's Voice
Quote:Before she hit it big on Idol, Haley studied jazz piano and jazz history at Harper and performed with College's jazz groups. Last June, she sang at our annual Dinner and Jazz concert. The news release we distributed promoting that event, by the way, bore a headline labeling Haley simply as a “Harper Student Vocalist,” making it seem extra cool now in one of those we-knew-her-back-when-type ways.
That jazz concert was in June. This year at that time, she’ll be on tour – and her former Harper jazz instructor, Ken Spurr (a professional musician who has done jazz recordings of his own), isn’t surprised.
...When I pressed him for specifics, he told me it was her range that was extraordinary. Not to mention the texture of her voice, and its amazing depth.
When she hit those high notes, he said, it would make the hair stand up on the back of your neck.
She is, Ken continued, a little like Johnny Cash or Elvis.
“You’re comparing her to Johnny Cash and Elvis?” I asked. “That’s high praise.”
Yes, he told me. That’s the kind of depth her voice has.
