Event Description
A vibrant force in folk-pop, Rachael Sage has spent her career defying categories and expectations. Since founding her own label, MPress Records, the New York-based artist has released a steady stream of colorful, heartfelt albums that blend poetic lyricism with infectious melodies. She has toured alongside icons such as Rufus Wainwright, Ani DiFranco, Shawn Colvin, and Judy Collins, and her live shows are known for their humor, vulnerability, and bold theatrical flair.
A six-time Independent Music Award winner and John Lennon Songwriting Contest Grand Prize recipient, Sage is also a visual artist and former ballet dancer who once performed with the New York City Ballet. Beyond the stage, she is a “cancer thriver” and passionate advocate, using her music to raise awareness and funds for causes from women’s health to youth homelessness. With her signature blend of resilience and radiance, Sage transforms every performance into an inspiring celebration of art and survival.
