The '90s Alt-Rock Revival Is Upon Us, Starring Alanis Morrissette
by Lorena Caro
03 December 2019
The '90s brought us so much, but most importantly Alanis Morissette. In 1995, the then-19-year-old phenom unleashed her third album Jagged Little Pill. The groundbreaking LP was a commercial smash that topped the charts in 13 countries upon release. Its legacy has inspired a new generation of female artists ranging from Avril Lavigne to Britney Spears (you oughta know her "You Oughta Know" cover).
Today, Morissette announced the dates for a summer 2020 tour commemorating Jagged Little Pill's 25th anniversary. It kicks off next June in Portland, Oregon. As if that nostalgic revival isn't enough, Morissette's tour will feature fellow '90s rock icons Liz Phair and the band Garbage.
The tour announcement accompanies that of Morrissette's upcoming ninth studio album, Such Pretty Forks in the Road, out May 1. It's her first album since 2012's Havoc and Bright Lights. The first single from Such Pretty Forks in the Road, "Reasons I Drink," can be streamed, below.
The news of the tour also follows the Broadway adaptation of Jagged Little Pill, which debuts this Thursday at the Broadhurst Theatre. The Broadway musical was written by Diablo Cody (Juno, Young Adult), directed by Tony winner Diane Paulus (Finding Neverland, Hair), and will feature choreography from frequent Beyoncé collaborator Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui.
Jagged Little Pill tour pre-sale begins December 10 at 11 AM local time, while general admission tickets go on sale December 13 at 11a AM, local time. Fans will receive an instant download of "Reasons I Drink" with every ticket purchase, as well as a digital download of her upcoming album. See all Jagged Little Pill tour dates, below.
