Despite this unfortunate event regarding the North American leg, the seven-time Grammy Awards winning singer did not give out any updates on the UK leg. This means that Morissette’ fans here can still expect the shows to kick off this September. Starting on September 28, the “You Oughta Know” aggressor will perform at the O2 in London and move to play the second show at Utilita Arena in Birmingham in the next day, followed by the last one on October 4 at Arena in Manchester.

This upcoming ‘Jagged Little Pill‘ Tour is the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the record of the same name, released back in 1995. The LP has become one of the biggest selling albums of all time, with sales over 33 millions worldwide and multiple successful singles such as “You Oughta Know“, “Ironic“, and “Hand in My Pockets“. Among numerous accolades earned from this blockbuster record, the Brit Awards also named Morissette International Breakthrough Act in 1996.
In addition to the world tour, the 45-year-old singer will drop the ninth studio album ‘Such Pretty Forks in the Road‘ this year. It is Morissette’s first music in eight years since 2012’s ‘havoc and bright lights‘. “Reasons I Drink” is picked as the introduction of the singer’s new chapter; the song is a piano-rock ballad that tackles the issues of addiction and mental health, produced by Alex Hope who has worked with many current pop stars like Troye Sivan, Tegan and Sara, and Selena Gomez.
Originally planned for the release on May 1, ‘Such Pretty Forks in the Road‘ is now indefinitely pushed back. Similar to many artists who prepared to drop a new album this time around, Morissette announced on April 16 that she felt it was appropriate to “press pause” on the record being released.

The “Hands Clean” singer made it up to fans waiting for new music by sharing one more track off the LP, “Diagnosis“. The song continues the record’s emotional and mellow vibes, with its pure piano ballad and Morissette’s raw vocal sordidly belting about depression.
