Alanis Morissette has announced the revised dates for the upcoming tour, the ‘Jagged Little Pill‘ tour, to the autumn of 2021. The UK leg was supposed to kick off in this coming September, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all three shows are now pushed back to October 2021.
Last month, the queen of alternative rock decided to delay the ‘Jagged Little Pill‘ tour in the United States to Summer 2021, while retaining the dates for the UK and Ireland leg. It is now certain, however, that all three shows in the country are now affected by the ongoing crisis of COVID-19.
All UK shows will take place in October 2021, starting from Birmingham on October 18, London on October 20, and Manchester on October 22. American singer/songwriter Liz Phair will join all shows as an opening act.
Apart from the postponement of the new tour, Morissette will release the ninth studio album, ‘Such Pretty Forks in the Road‘, on July 31 after pushed back from the original date on May 1. The album is led by lead single “Reasons I Drink” and “Smiling“, a track from the Broadway Musical ‘Jagged Little Pill‘, as well as the latest emotionally-charged ballad “Diagnosis“.

To further commemorate the 25th anniversary of ground-breaking record ‘Jagged Little Pill‘, the 46-year-old singer will also drop a deluxe reissue of the LP and rare videos from her 1997 concert. The digital reissue will contain acoustic live records from Morissette’s show in London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire back in March. Listen to the new rendition of “Ironic” below.
She will also share a live film of her concert for the debut album in 1997. The film can be streamed on YouTube on June 28 at 5.30 PM BST. Elsewhere, all five music videos of ‘Jagged Little Pill”s singles are remastered in 4K and uploaded on the singer’s official YouTube channel.
Tickets for the ‘Jagged Little Pill‘ tour are available now via Ticketmaster. Those purchased for the previous dates are still eligible for the rescheduled shows.
