Emerging at the height of the Y2K teen pop explosion, Mandy Moore made the leap from adolescent idol to mature pop star. Moore managed to land a pair of hits between 1999 and 2000 but she stayed on the margins of the Disney-driven phenomenon. Moore's leading role in the 2002 romantic drama A Walk to Remember opened up a parallel career path to her recording career. She continued to concentrate on music during the 2000s, broadening and deepening her original material on 2007's Wild Hope and 2009's Amanda Leigh, a pair of records that successfully transitioned her into the realm of adult alternative music. Moore eventually landed a role on the television drama This Is Us, for which she snared an Emmy nomination. On the heels of her success, she signed to Verve Forecast for 2020's Silver Landings, a nuanced and sophisticated comeback album that found its match in 2022's In Real Life. Wikipedia
