Mandy Moore on Tour
Though Mandy Moore's career has pulled her away from music for long stretches — an entire decade before her 2019 return — she's often said that singing and songwriting are her truest passions. Which is why fans should expect to see the kind of heartfelt emotion that the This Is Us star is known for showing on TV, but all the more amplified and real as she takes the stage to play her gorgeous 1970s-inspired folk-pop. Even in her work as a teen — singing bubblegum pop hits like "Candy," or playing Jamie Sullivan in A Walk to Remember — Moore exuded an unmistakable sweetness rivaled only by her gift for performance (Roger Ebert once wrote that she "inspires instant affection"). While still in high school, she held her own on huge tours with *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys. Now a grown woman, Moore owns every room she enters.
Mandy Moore in Concert
Growing up outside of Orlando in the mid '80s, Amanda Leigh Moore dreamt of singing and acting. Her parents — a reporter and an airline pilot — assumed it was a phase, but young Mandy begged for lessons until she got them. Before long, she was starring in local theater productions and belting out "The Star-Spangled Banner" at sports games. At 12, Moore left home for the prestigious Stagedoor Manor performing arts summer camp. Just three years later, she left for tours with the era's biggest boy bands, promoting her poppy first album, So Real (1999). Across six more full-lengths, Moore moved ever-closer to the sound of her heart: a folksy, mature, pop-meets-rock sound inspired by the likes of Joni Mitchell, Paul McCartney and Todd Rundgren. Her acting developed similarly as she transitioned from teen dramas and rom-coms to roles that felt tailor-made for her (think Tangled's silky-voiced Rapunzel in 2010). After releasing her intimate Amanda Leigh album in 2009, Moore mostly disappeared from music until 2019, when she dropped her most realized song yet, "When I Wasn't Watching," hinting at the album to follow. In the meantime, she'd become a household name (and face) all over again by playing Rebecca Pearson in NBC's hit heartstring-tugging family series This Is Us.
This was such a wonderful show! Loved hearing Mandy speak about her music and the ideas behind some of her lyrics. Three days later, I'm still feeling the magic and constantly hearing these happy, beautiful songs in my head. Many thanks to Mandy and her band for sharing their passions and talents with us. 💜
One of the best concerts ever. Mandys new music is phenomenal and her voice is amazing. The crowd loved her. I am dying to see her agajn
The singer and band did a wonderful job. Unfortunately, there was quite a bit of feedback throughout the entire show. A show and space of this caliber should have better troubleshooting skills so that the issue is fixed. The artist should not have to point out the feedback issues during the show, you could sense her frustration. The crew should know better.
Amazing concert. She is the REAL deal!! Great venue and 90 minutes straight of her vocals.
We were unable to hear the vocals since the base drum and guitars overpowered Mandy's voice. We put up with it for about 40 minutes before giving up and exiting the venue. We were not the only one's to leave prematurely.
Paid top dollar to be close, when i got there i find out mandy requested no photos or videos. For the amount of money i paid i felt that was nonsense. Then mid show she basically says a lot of the music she played in her youth now embarrass her. Needless to say her setlist was disappointing. We wanna hear the hits, sorry if you no longer like them. Then to make matters worse her band(lead by her husband) overpowered like every song. She only played about 18 anyway. Wasted my money and my time. Dont waste yours.
This was my first time seeing Mandy Moore after being a fan and having tickets to her previous tour that was derailed due to the pandemic. I was excited to see she was coming back to Durham, NC as it was one of the cities on said tour that didn’t happen. It was a good show but I have to point out the weird no photography policy. I say “weird” not because patrons were not allowed to take photos during the show, but because a professional photographer was. Inasmuch as this person continuously walking around the orchestra section of the venue (where I sat) during the opening act as well as the first portion of Mandy’s set. I’m not sure if the photographer was with Mandy’s team or the venue (Carolina Theatre). In any case, it was quite distracting, especially given the photographer stopped directly in my line of sight to the stage to take a photo at one point during Mandy’s set. Beyond that, there were some audio issues during the show. Carolina Theatre is a relatively small venue and I thought the volume, particularly of Mandy’s set, was too loud for it (I’m usually not one to complain about that but my ears were ringing for a bit afterward). There were moments when we heard screeching feedback as well as moments that the backing instruments drowned out Mandy’s voice.
Mandy was phenomenal. Her voice is amazing. I bought these tickets on presale and my expectations were very high but she blew me out of the water. The supporting band (including her adorable husband) we’re very impressive. Best show I have seen all year. Also opening act AHI is definitely worth checking out.
The venue is so cozy and personal; I was literally sitting 30ft away from Mandy Moore! I thought it sucked that I couldn't take pictures, but I realized it probably more comfortable for her to not be constantly photographed. She really opened up about the making of her album and I felt she was being a genuine character, not like some celebrities. It was awsome that she preformed a few of her new songs after the interview. Her voice is gorgeous and carried well on the sound stage. Plus I got to meet her after and got an autograph!!! I'm going to be back at the Grammy Museum all the time!!
Amazing! even more so in person! humble, beautiful and an amazing talent!! cant wait to see her again!! Loved her!!
The Grammy Museum is brand new, and I'd never been there before. Beautiful little space, as was the room in which we saw and heard the artist. Very intimate setting, up close and personal with Mandy. She answered a lot of questions about the making of her latest album, then sang a few songs. Wish she could've sang a few more - she and Mike Viola were great live. They also did not allow ANY kind of photography, even at the meet and greet afterwards, despite how small the event was. Personalized autographs weren't allowed, either. You could buy her album for $20 to get signed. I'd say next time, bring your own copy of the album to get signed and save your money! Mandy was very humble and super sweet. Seemed gorgeous inside and out. Overall, very cool experience and I would definitely go see another artist there again. Just wish I could sneak a darn picture!
