Alanis Morissette to be inducted into Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame by Olivia Rodrigo
Olivia Rodrigo will induct Alanis Morissette into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame during the 2022 ceremony in September
Rodrigo, who brought out Morissette to perform "You Oughta Know" at her May Greek Theatre show in LA, will present Morissette with the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame at the ceremony next month, which will take place at Toronto's Massey Hall and will also include other inductees Bryan Adams, Jim Vallance, David Foster and Daniel Lavoie.
Rodrigo told Exclaim!, "I remember hearing Alanis for the first time when I was about 13. I was in the car with my parents when Jagged Little Pill came on. I heard "Perfect", I was like, 'Oh, my God… You can write songs like that?' I just looked at music and songwriting in a completely different way."
As well as treating fans on her Sour tour to a guest appearance from Morissette, Rodrigo was also joined by Avril Lavigne, Natalie Imbruglia and Conan Gray. She was also joined by Lily Allen during her Glastonbury Festival performance.
In June Morissette released her first meditation album the storm before the calm.
The 2022 Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala will take place on 24 September at Toronto's Massey Hall.
