Alanis Morissette is one of the most distinctive and successful singer/songwriters to emerge from the ’90s. Her debut, “Alanis,” was released in 1991 and went platinum in Canada. That year, Morissette won the Juno award for Most Promising Female Vocalist. After high school, Morissette moved to Los Angeles, where she had the good fortune to hook up with songwriter/producer Glen Ballard. Ballard pushed Morissette to pursue darker, edgier themes, and the resulting demo tape was shopped around and Madonna’s Maverick imprint label eventually signed Morissette. “Jagged Little Pill,” was released in 1995. On the strength of the break-out single “You Oughta Know,” the album reached platinum status. Follow-up singles: “Hand in My Pocket,” “All I Really Want” and “Ironic” kept “Jagged Little Pill” on the album charts the next two years, ultimately selling 28 million copies worldwide with industry awards, including Grammys for Album of the Year, Best Female Rock Vocal Performance, Best Rock Song and Best Rock Album. Her follow-up, “Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie,” sold more than 7 million copies worldwide. In 2002, Morissette released “Under Rug Swept.” “So-Called Chaos” followed in 2004, and a year later, she took “Jagged Little Pill” on the road as an acoustic tour. “Collection,” an 18-track retrospective of her work, followed in 2005. More recently, she released “Havoc and Bright Lights” in 2012. Since, Alanis has continued to tour and break new ground both creatively and commercially. Of course, she still performs.
