Mandy Moore Distances Herself From Bubblegum Pop

Mandy Moore chatted with Blender about her fourth album ‘Coverage’, which takes her in a different musical direction, something she apparently wanted to do all along. “It felt like everyone I was working with on my other albums was against me,” she said. “I didn’t like the songs [from my last album].” The new album sees her cover music from before she was born, such as ‘Drop the Pilot’ by Joan Armatrading and ‘Whole of the Moon’ by the Waterboys. “The idea was to present these songs in a way my age group can relate to,” she said.
