Mandy Moore has played songs from her upcoming album in an exclusive preview to fashion editors in Tokyo.

Moore performed the set at the new headquarters of Coach and was backed by co-writer and producer Mike Viola on acoustic guitar, WWD reports.

The singer, whose full name is Amanda Leigh Moore, played a number of songs from her forthcoming folk-influenced album Amanda Leigh.

She joked: "I wanted to make a really quintessential southern California pop record from the '70s.

"We made it in our buddy's basement in Boston on all vintage equipment."

In addition to her fashion and acting career, Moore has released five studio albums, from her debut So Real in 1999 to Wild Hope in 2007.
