On the upcoming album, Alanis will guide fans through 11 different meditations. The forthcoming album was co-written alongside Dave Harrington (Darkside). Alongside the announcement, Alanis released the first track from the album, “safety—empath in paradise” today. Get it here!

Of today’s announcement and making the forthcoming album, Alanis shared, “Meditating rests my interior, to the point where I can have access to ideas and visions and inspirations—I can hear my own capital-S Self. Music, for me, is like a portal in a way, an invitation into a state of being that I’m not normally in. Making the record kept me super connected and accountable during COVID, when I felt like I was just going to disappear and float away.”

In conjunction with the wide release on traditional DSPs, the storm before the calm will also be released on the leading mental health app, Calm. The platform will host all eleven tracks for on-demand streaming. Fans can download Calm now for iPhone and Android and receive a seven day free trial for first-time subscribers.

Alanis will be embarking on her world tour celebrating 25 years of JAGGED LITTLE PILL. The new dates follow Alanis’ sold out #1 female-fronted tour from 2021, which was also one of the Top Worldwide Tours of 2021 selling over 500,000 tickets. Her UK tour will kick off in Glasgow, OVO HYDRO, and she will perform in cities including Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham before wrapping the UK leg of her tour with two huge headline shows at The o2, London on June 28^th and June 29th.
