Olivia Rodrigo promised some special guests for her headlining Daisy Chain Fields set, and she didn’t disappoint. The star recruited her heroes Sarah McLachlan, Alanis Morisette, and Stevie Nicks to the stage at Irvine, California’s Great Park on Saturday night.

Rodrigo’s all-women festival — which donated $10 million to nonprofits benefitting women and girls — was inspired by Lilith Fair, the iconic traveling festival from the late Nineties. Lilith Fair was founded by McLachlan, so it only made sense that the trailblazer join Rodrigo onstage. They first duetted on McLachlan’s “Building a Mystery,” followed by her heart-wrenching hit “Angel,” which they dedicated to the late Dolly Parton, who died on Aug. 25 at the age of 80. McLachlan described Parton as “the O.G. matriarch, beautiful goddess” and “the biggest philanthropist” of country music.

Rodrigo and Morissette first met in 2021, when they both appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone for our annual Musicians on Musicians issue. “I remember having my mind blown when I was 13,” Rodrigo told Morissette in the interview. “I was in the car with my parents listening to Jagged Little Pill. I remember hearing ‘Perfect,’ and I was like, ‘Oh, my God.’ I told my music teacher a couple days after: ‘You can write songs like that?’ I just looked at music and songwriting in a completely different way.”
