Alanis Morissette Celebrates ‘Jagged Little Pill’ Anniversary with Exclusive Concert Broadcast
Catch Morissette’s recent Apollo Theater performance in full on The Pulse, 90s on 9, Lithium, and VOLUME.
Do you remember where you were when you first heard “Jagged Little Pill”? Alanis Morissette’s chart-topping 1995 album has had no shortage of buzz as one of the best-selling albums of all time, inspiring everything from think pieces on the meaning of irony to covers by Beyoncé, Britney Spears, and more.
While nearly 25 years have passed since its release, the bluesy harmonica riffs and relatable lyrics of “Jagged Little Pill” remain unmistakable, and to celebrate, the seven-time GRAMMY® Award-winning singer/songwriter is embarking on a 31-date North American tour alongside special guests Garbage and Liz Phair.
But before she takes us back to the ’90s, Morissette has released a new song, “Reasons I Drink,” from her forthcoming album, “Such Pretty Forks In the Road” (out May 1, 2020).
In honor of the landmark anniversary, tour announcement, and Broadway debut of “Jagged Little Pill” (the musical), Morissette recently performed the album in its entirety during an intimate concert at Harlem’s world-famous Apollo Theater — and SiriusXM is bringing it to you exclusively across multiple channels.
Listen first on The Pulse this Friday, December 13, at 8pm ET. For those who can’t catch the premiere (or just want to relive the magic), catch replays on 90s on 9, Lithium, and VOLUME throughout the weekend.
Presale tickets for the whirlwind anniversary tour — kicking off on June 2, 2020, and hitting cities like Los Angeles, New York, Toronto, and Chicago before wrapping in Nashville on July 25, 2020 — are currently available via LiveNation. Tickets go on sale to the general public this Friday, December 13, at 11am local time.
‘Jagged Little Pill,” the musical which made its Broadway debut on Thursday, December 5, is inspired by the themes and emotions revealed in Morissette’s album of the same name, and is directed by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus (“Waitress,” “Pippin”) while featuring an original story by Academy Award-winning writer Diablo Cody (“Juno,” “Tully”).
