Concord Confirmed new label

[Tusk]

The hints were there but Haley's finally got a bio on their site

Haley Reinhart

Originally from the Chicago area, Reinhart was born into a musical family with a deep love of rock-and-roll, funk, jazz, classic pop, and the blues. In her early childhood, she started joining her parents’ rock band Midnight onstage and quickly found herself hooked on performing. "One memory that stands out is my golden birthday, when I turned nine on September 9, 1999,” says Reinhart. "My parents were playing a tattoo convention and there were all these tough-looking people and biker dudes there, and I got up to sing a LeAnn Rimes song with my hair in little Princess Leia buns. But then once I started singing it got so quiet and the tattoo machines all went off—everyone was listening to me. I was so overcome by it, I cried right afterward, but they were happy tears. I just thought to myself, ‘This is amazing.’”

Through the years Reinhart continued singing with Midnight, and later joined a high school jazz band that led her to perform at major jazz festivals across Europe while still a teenager. She then studied jazz in college and, at age 20, landed a spot on season 10 of American Idol, eventually finishing in third place. The following year, Reinhart made her full-length debut with Listen Up!, a 2012 Interscope Records release that premiered at #17 on the Billboard 200 chart.

A milestone year for Reinhart, 2015 marked the release of "Can’t Help Falling in Love” (a song included on her 2016 sophomore album Better). Chosen as the unforgettable soundtrack to the Extra Gum ad spot "The Story of Sarah and Juan,” Reinhart’s spellbinding rendition hit #1 on Spotify’s global viral chart in 2015 and has now amassed over 57 million streams on the platform. That same year, Reinhart began collaborating and touring with YouTube sensation Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox, offering up jazz/ragtime/swing-inspired updates of songs like Radiohead’s "Creep” and The White Stripes’ "Seven Nation Army.” To date, Reinhart’s Postmodern Jukebox contributions have garnered more than 112 million views on YouTube.

Nice to see a polished, up-to-date bio.

"You guys really paid attention, didn't ya'? That's really nice."

What a beautiful sight I got here. I've searched daily for a month hoping to see it.

Yes, I was also so glad to see a bio that someone actually worked on!

And to be in the company of great Django ... that is something, too, even if a phenomenon of the alphabet!

could be nothing....but wouldn't it be cool?

@HaleyReinhart One 'stage of separation' to the Beatles closer
Maybe Concord could see their way to finding a project for you and Sean to collaborate on?

I said this to her on Twitter...


Hanson did it, Kris did it, you can do it! 


That and that I'd buy her music no matter what.

Oh no worries at all! You are super creative & I appreciate it always. All I need are my haliens & I’m good. I’ve always been super hands on with everything & now I’m fully running the show. I feel blessed to be in the position where I can do just that.

It doesn't seem like Haley really needs a label. She has enough money now to cover the upfront costs of making a record. Plus she's experienced enough to know how to release a record & make $$$. And she probably knows she'll make a lot more releasing it independently than if she was on a label. Plus she has total control over the project

It seems to me, that she's getting just as much media exposure leading up to #LoFiSoul as the last 2 records anyway.
