This new EP showcases the NYC-based singer/pianist’s confident and sophisticated songwriting, merging classical, folk, pop, and rock influences. Featuring members of Daft Punk, Patti Smith, and Bruce Springsteen’s bands in addition to her own touring outfit The Sequins, the eclectic four-song recording redefines Sage’s string-heavy alt-pop within a more adventurous, contemporary setting.
