Alanis Morissette has said that she can’t wait to get back on stage following her short hiatus from the music industry.

The Ironic singer recently released her new album Havoc And Bright Lights and is now preparing to take the new material on the road.

Speaking to The Press Association, Morissette said: "It's all very, very exciting. Playing shows, getting ready to release the record. I've been under a rock for a while, being a new mom and wearing sweatpants.

"It'll be nice to get out of the house and wear something shiny again, or maybe even something fitted, to remind myself I have a body."

Morissette, who gave birth to a baby boy in 2010, explained she is finding it difficult to get the balance between motherhood and work right.

She further pitched in: "It's weird having this split agenda for the first time. Before getting married, I was an artist without a family, but I didn't want to carry on living that life, where the professional fulfilment is sky-high and the personal life is a little void.

"I didn't want to get to 90 and have no family around me and think I had done nothing other than work. In the past few years I very much prioritised personal fulfilment and I'm really glad I did."
