We now know there's going to be another massively successful act to play at the Grandstand this year.

She's a seven-time Grammy winner.

A thirteen Juno Awards winner.

Her debut album sold 33 million copies globally, while later works went multi-platinum.

Alanis Morissette is coming to the Iowa State Fair on Monday, August 15th!

Alanis has sold over 75 million records worldwide and continues to be a household name for many music fans. Mixing pop-rock with angst, the Canadian singer/songwriter will hit the Iowa State Fair Grandstand joining other announced artists such as Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood, Disturbed, and Demi Lavotto (see all the announced acts here)

Alanis Morissette's name has been in the news over the last few days when it was announced her former drummer Taylor Hawkins had died at age 50. While Taylor will always be best known for his work with the rock band Foo Fighters, he was Alanas' drummer for many years prior, and the two maintained a good relationship.

Alanis' catalog includes nine studio albums boasting 43 singles. six compilation albums, and 33 music videos. She is the second best-selling female artist of all time, behind only Shania Twain.

Tickets to see Alanis Morrisette at the Iowa State Fair will run $45-$95 and can be purchased here.
