We’re a ways down the road from 1995, the year Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill went supernova on the charts. The record ultimately went platinum 16 times over. Now, on the eve of her 45th birthday, the Canadian-born singer and songwriter will perform an acoustic show while—in true woman warrior style—expecting the birth of her third child. She’s also enjoying another exciting stage of contemporary superstardom: Jagged Little Pill: the Musical, set to open on Broadway later in 2019. This year may also witness a brand-new record from Morissette, who late last year hinted at an imminent release on Twitter.

It’s been over two decades since the release of Alanis Morissette’s 16-time platinum-selling hit Jagged Little Pill, but it remains the worldwide leader for a debut album, marking its place in music history. The Canadian-born singer-songwriter has continued to produce a steady stream of angsty alt-rock hits that have garnered both Grammy and Juno Award nods over the years. Pair Morissette’s masterful and earnest vocals with the rustic and magisterial backdrop of the historic Mountain Winery concert venue—and perhaps a glass of wine and a culinary indulgence—and you have the makings of a memorable early autumn evening.
