Over 25 years after the breakthrough debut of Jagged Little Pill, an album which earned four Grammys, sold 30 million records and spawned a dedicated worldwide fan base, Alanis Morissette remains not only an enduringly popular artist, but one whose celebrated body of work stems from a fierce commitment to authenticity and, to an equal extent, vulnerability. She has always evidenced that she was an artist with her own point of view and is regarded as one of the most insightful artists of our time. To this day, Jagged Little Pill remains the bestselling debut release by a female artist in the U.S. and is also the highest selling debut album worldwide in music history.

As a recording artist, Alanis Morissette has released a series of groundbreaking albums that have sold more than 60 million copies worldwide.

Most recently, in 2020, Alanis debuted her 9^th studio album, Such Pretty Forks in the Road, as well as the Such Pretty Forks In The Mix EP, created by a diverse, trans-inclusive, all womxn group of artists that reimagines Alanis’ album.
