[B0441_RS_small-lr.JPG]"Genuine talent...where there's poignancy there is also subtlety, unforced passion and knowing observation." - Rolling Stone

"...her keen ironic sense of humor and quirky sense of the profound is what makes her special as a songwriter...Sage is the stitch between the great rock and pop traditions of the past and what those traditions have wrought in the hypermodern world of the present. - Billboard

"...a uniquely rebellious style as quirky as it is passionate - the quintessential East Village Renaissance woman." - Keyboard

Celebrated songstress Rachael Sage has premiered new song "Abby Would You Wait" today on Huffington Post - it is now streaming here<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/28/rachael-sage-haunted-by-you_n_1383623.html>.

Rachael has had an illustrious career, respected and praised by the likes of the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Rolling Stone and Billboard.
