McLachlan’s tenth studio album and debut release for Concord Records,
Better Broken takes its title from its opening track – a soul-searching reflection on the fortitude that comes from weathering life’s constant storms – and furthers her legacy with a selection of songs that speak an uncompromising but radically illuminating truth about the state of the human condition. Listen to the album
HERE.
Better Broken marks a bold new chapter for Sarah McLachlan, injecting fresh energy into her signature lush, moody pop-rock sound. Primarily recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in Los Angeles, the album finds McLachlan expanding her creative circle and collaborating with producers Tony Berg and Will Maclellan, alongside an exceptional group of musicians including Wendy Melvoin, Matt Chamberlain, Benny Bock, and Greg Leisz. The result is a richly textured body of work that feels both expansive and deeply personal.
Over her three-decade career, McLachlan has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide and earned three GRAMMY Awards and twelve JUNO Awards. Beyond her music, her cultural impact includes founding Lilith Fair, the groundbreaking all-female festival that helped reshape the live music landscape. That legacy was recently revisited in
Lilith Fair: Building A Mystery – The Untold Story, which premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival to critical acclaim before debuting on Hulu. The film is executive produced by Dan Levy and directed by Ally Pankiw and was noted as one of the top documentary films to watch in 2025 by the
Los Angeles Times.
McLachlan’s influence also extends deeply into philanthropy. She is the founder of the Sarah McLachlan School of Music, a not-for-profit providing free music education and mentorship to underserved children and youth facing barriers to access. Established in Vancouver in 2002, the school now serves more than 2,000 students annually across three Canadian cities, with McLachlan personally covering administrative costs to ensure all fundraising directly supports its students. $1 from every ticket sold on the tour will be donated to the School.
