ALANIS MORISSETTE 

TO RELEASE NEW STUDIO ALBUM

PLUS GUARDIAN ANGEL TOUR 2012 ANNOUNCED

Multi-platinum, Grammy winning artist Alanis Morissette released her highly anticipated seventh studio album, HAVOC AND BRIGHT LIGHTS, on 27^th August with Columbia UK and will return to the UK this November starting with a huge show at London The O2.

Produced by Guy Sigsworth (Björk, Madonna, Seal) and Joe Chiccarelli (Tori Amos, Elton John, My Morning Jacket, U2) and recorded in Los Angeles, the new album marks the songstress’ first release in four years.  Fans will be able to purchase the album’s first single, “Guardian,” from 26^th August.

“This record, as always, is a snapshot of what I currently obsess about, care about, and what strikes me at 4 in the morning in my most introspective moments,” says Morissette. “It is my emotional, psychological, social and philosophical commentary through song. I can't wait to share it with this fun and funny planet, and to tour, and can't WAIT to have the lively, engaging and challenging conversations that these songs may invite.”

Following a string of sold out shows in June Alanis will return to the UK this November:
