Haley Reinhart drops new single 'Last Kiss Goodbye', releases nostalgic music video: Watch
Singer-songwriter and Season 10 American Idol finalist Haley Reinhart just dropped her brand-new song 'Last Kiss Goodbye' today (June 1).
The track is the lead single from her forthcoming album due later this year via Concord Records.
'Last Kiss Goodbye' was written and produced by Haley Reinhart & Anders Grahn (Andrew McMahon, Haley Kiyoko) while the music video, which premiered on Refinery29, was directed by famed photographer Joshua Shultz, who's worked with the likes of Imagine Dragons and Jared Leto.
The video features Haley bicycling on the beach and frolicking through the picturesque canals of Venice Beach while she sings into the camera through a California sun-drenched lens.
“I wrote & recorded 'Last Kiss Goodbye' sitting cross-legged on my living room floor, channeling the very essence of a timeless love. I shot the video in Venice, CA at the canals as well as the beach. I adore these places as they truly radiate romance. I want you to get butterflies & feel as though you are watching an old film noir! This tune spilled out of me like a fine wine... And so, I hope it takes you wherever it is you wish to go!” says Haley.
Haley's tryst with music began at a very young age. She began honing her formidable vocal chops by singing with her parents’ band at age seven. With her beguiling vocals and powerful delivery, Haley Reinhart brings both raw passion and soulful sincerity to all her musical output.
A 27-year-old singer/songwriter with timeless sensibilities, Reinhart placed Top 3 in Season 10 of American Idol and earned a platinum certification in the US for her breathtaking rendition of Elvis Presley’s 'Can’t Help Falling in Love' which has amassed a whopping 105+ million streams on Spotify.
In addition, Haley has emerged as a leading artist on Postmodern Jukebox (a YouTube-based rotating music collective) 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. She is also a burgeoning voice actor and co-star of the Netflix original animated series 'F Is for Family,' which also stars Laura Dern, Justin Long, and Academy-Award winner Sam Rockwell.
In addition to collaborating with legendary musicians across many genres (including Tony Bennett, Slash, David Foster, and Irvin Mayfield and the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra), she’s brought her spirited live performance to festivals such as Lollapalooza, the New Orleans Jazz Fest as well as solo headlining tours of the US and international markets, visiting seven countries across Europe. Reinhart is all set to release her yet-to-be-titled sophomore album later this year via Concord Records.
