Afterglow is a 2003 album by Sarah McLachlan. It was her first album of new material in six years, after the success of Surfacing and the Lilith Fair festival. Following those successes, McLachlan took a few years furlough to start a family with her husband and drummer, Ashwin Sood. Their daughter, India Ann Sushill Sood, was born in 2002. She also did a lot of work with the Sarah McLachlan Music Outreach program, funding music lessons for disadvantaged children. Unlike past albums where she went to an isolated cottage to write the songs, she wrote the songs for Afterglow in her family home mainly before the birth of her child. She wrote the songs entirely on piano, which is also a departure from her previous albums which she wrote on guitar. Longtime collaborator Pierre Marchand produced the album. McLachlan wrote all of the songs on the album, including two she wrote with Marchand.

Chart success and award nominations

Afterglow was released on November 4, 2003 and was a big success in North America, reaching number two on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Canadian charts. It also has reached the top 50 in Australia in 2004. The first single Fallen reached the top ten on the Adult Top 40 Billboard charts and a remix reached top ten in the United States dance charts. A second single, Stupid was released in March of 2004. Sarah McLachlan was nominated in five Juno Award categories in Canada, including Album of the Year and Pop Album of the Year for Afterglow, and Songwriter of the Year for the songs on the album. The awards were announced on April 4, 2004.
