Alanis Morissette

Alanis Morissette's widely successful 1995 debut album, Jagged Little Pill, gave the Canadian-American singer/songwriter the needed propulsion to break into the mainstream music scene. The album was an unprecedented hit and remains the best-selling debut album by a female artist in the US. The musician is still banking off her early success and she continues to release new material and tour with her characteristic style mellow, rock-tinged pop.
