My dream deluxe album would be with 3 CDs, each with the same set: one with the studio versions, one rockin' live with the band, and one most intimate with just a guitar/piano to go with the voice. That would be something!
Thanks for all the videos and reports! Loved to read them all, watch them all. So exciting to see how she is breaking through!
Watching all of these great videos a few things stand out.One is the quality of Haley's originals when handled with a band like this.
Another is the amount of ground that they are able to cover.In addition to Haley's songs they're going from Elvis to Michael Jackson to Soundgarten-and more.Its awfully impressive.
I'm also impressed with John Notto on guitar.Guitarists can sometimes overplay and play too loud but I'm impressed with John's taste and restraint,including his solos.
I saw Haley at the Crescent Ballroom in Phoenix last night. She was incredible! If I can figure out a way to post the videos I took I will do so. I got her doing my favorite, Behave, and then most of Listen (had someone in front of me who kept moving their head, so not the best).
She was absolutely as lovely as could be in person, and she high-fived me when I told her that if they ever make a movie of my book The Porcupine of Truth, I'll be coming to her for the soundtrack. :-)
The show itself was simply off the hook. The band was just awesome, and Haley has such a great presence. She was in perfect voice, and I know the friends I brought were very impressed. Favorite moments were I Belong to You and her opener, Talkin' About, which has never been my favorite on the album but was just awesome in person.

I went to the @haleyreinhart concert at @elreytheatre and it was awesome. I got to go onstage with @scottbradlee and play some @pmjofficial and got to jam with @jacobluttrell78 who just proposed to his girlfriend! Congrats man!
This moment was taken by @lightstonpix right after the concert. Haley, you're working hard and soothing a lot of souls with your voice. I'm inspired. Much love!
I took a look at my vid of them performing Creep at the El Rey and it's 'not bad'
It's 8 minutes long, crowd calling for an encore, Haley introducing Scott and Casey, Scott using his sales pitch technique to promote Haley etc.... banter, and a minute or so after the song
Take a break from the Solano vid, will post this next
