Music to Your Ears

Dedicated E-mail: Walmart Soundcheck

Star turn on Entourage? Check. Secret wedding? Check. An intimate, mature, lyrical new record that promises to blow away fans and critics alike? Check.

Mandy Moore, by now well versed in the art of surprise, is dropping her highly anticipated new album, Amanda Leigh — and you can get a special look and listen (even a free track!) presented by Vaseline Aloe Fresh, on Soundcheck, Walmart’s original music performance series featuring exclusive sessions and behind-the-scenes interviews with the world’s most talented and fascinating recording artists.

The new record, which takes its title from Moore’s given name, is a revelation. With songs like “Love to Love Me Back,” “Fern Dell,” “Nothing Everything,” and the wryly upbeat single “I Could Break Your Heart Any Day of the Week,” Moore reveals an evolved songwriting style full of moody colors, lilting rhythms, and captivating melodies — all served up in her achingly expressive vocals.

Thanks to Vaseline with a new Aloe Fresh line for the summer, you can get a sneak peek at Mandy’s new album. Visit Soundcheck to hear Moore’s performance; watch the interview; and, for a limited time, download a free track from the new album.

All the perks of a backstage pass in the comfort of your home?

Check. Or rather, Soundcheck.
