New York, NY: Indie’s best-kept secret is finally revealed to a larger constituency on her new album, Blue Roses, set for a November 4th, 2014 U.S. release date. In the meantime, the soulful and melodic new single “English Tea” – debuted earlier this month by Elmore Magazine and swiftly gathering steam at both Triple A and College Radio – is sure to whet your appetite. Last month, another track from the album, Happiness (Maddie’s Song), was featured on the hit Lifetime® TV show ‘Dance Moms’, accompanying breakout dance star, Maddie Ziegler. Here’s a link to Rachael making a surprise guest appearance on the show: http://bit.ly/1o8p0ip
Described by Billboard Magazine as “the stitch between the great rock and pop traditions of the past”the new album Blue Roses is a collection of songs about the impact any single person can have upon the destiny of another. Sage has spent most of the last two years trying to channel evidence of compassion into her creative output. “These are incredibly confusing, chaotic times we’re living in, and the older I get the more vital it seems to me to document unabashed, wholehearted empathy wherever and however I can as an artist.”
Rachael Sage plays more than a hundred fifty gigs annually with her band, The Sequins, and has shared stages with Marc Cohn, A Great Big World, The Weepies, Shawn Colvin, Sarah McLachlan and Judy Collins. She will be touring throughout the U.S. and UK this Fall in support of the release of her new album, which features a duet with her mentor and friend Judy Collins, as well as guest appearances by members of Daft Punk, Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith’s bands.
