One of the most anticipated concerts in St. Johns in recent memory is just hours away.

Seven-time Grammy Award winner Alanis Morissette is set to take the stage tonight and tomorrow night at the Churchill Park Music Festival.

The 49-year-old Ottawa-born singer-songwriter rocketed to international fame in the mid-1990s with her breakthrough record Jagged Little Pill, selling more than 30 million copies.

Fans can expect hit after hit from that album alone in the setlist something Morisssette told VOCMs sister station K-Rock wasnt just thrown together.

I think were basically taking everything from the last 25 to 30 years and creating this kind of tapestry of songs that peppers a bunch of different decades, she said. And the order of the songs in the setlist really matters a lot to me, so we put a lot of time when we were rehearsing in making sure that the journey, emotionally, had its own arc.

Morissette says she looks forward to immersing herself in her music, along with the thousands in front of her.

I go in a trance when Im on stage so I always look forward to that, and then we do it together. Its just a giant invitation to feel and think and move. Anything you need.

Opening acts for tonights show, which is sold out, include Newfoundlands own Paige Penney, Montreals Metric and Meg Meyers.

Kellie Loder kicks off the Saturday show with Feist replacing Metric on the bill.
