He's the man at About.com that wrote a very favorable review of "Free."
Quote:The afternoon of March 29, 2012 I had the opportunity to speak with her in the midst of a whirlwind of publicity work supporting "Free."
...When asked about favorite songs from Listen Up!, she is hard pressed to name a single one in particular. Like many musicians, she takes pride in all of the songs she chooses to record. Haley Reinhart had a hand in writing a number of the tracks. I asked her if there would be any particular surprises for her fans on the album. She said, if anything, they might be surprised that there is relatively little rock feel to the music. Instead she has chosen to put together a mixture of Motown, funk, and jazz influences. All of that is evident to a degree in "Free."
I was curious what, for Haley Reinhart, is the best thing about performing her songs live. She cleverly turned the question around to say that performing live itself is the best thing for her about being a musician. There is nothing she finds more rewarding than sharing her songs and artistry live.
...Haley Reinhart is a young musician positively bubbling over in enthusiasm for her chosen profession and the opportunity to share her artistry and vision with fans. Haley Reinhart speaks quickly and with pride about her accomplishments and upcoming music as if she can not share her excitement and joy rapidly enough. She mentions with pleasure the impressive artistic freedom she has been granted by her label Interscope. She shares that the recently released "Free" music video incorporates many of her own ideas. Haley Reinhart is a pleasure to speak with, and she sounds like a star on the rise as she looks to be the next American Idol graduate to fulfill the promise of her success on the show.

Maybe he didn't have a recorder with him? Or plans on posting the interview -- not merely this account of the interview -- later?
