Album Notes

Dark, Deep, Melodic, Metal


SAGE4 (formerly SAGE) is an up and coming female-fronted band that is exploding out of Chicago's original rock scene.

SAGE4 features one-of-a-kind powerhouse vocalist Tracey Sage, who has been described by Sea of Tranquility as how Maynard James Keenan (from TOOL, A Perfect Circle) "might sound had he been born with ovaries", along with internationally renowned virtuoso guitarist Mike Walsh, whose instrumental CDs have sold in over 33 countries, writes a column for the world's largest guitar website, www.guitar9.com and teaches at the world’s largest guitar workshop, National Guitar Workshop. Together, they combine elements of Heavy Metal, Hard Rock, Progressive, Gothic and Alternative music to create a sound that breaks through musical boundaries.

SAGE4 captivates their audience on all levels with intense live performances, dark and aggressive melodies, edgy, thought-provoking lyrics, impeccable musicianship and killer style. As stated by MidwestBands.com, "Their music is the stuff of virtuosos, tapping into sounds similar to bands like Tool, Dream Theater and A Perfect Circle.

With the vocal strength of Tracey Sage and the musical talent of Mike, Vito, and Eric, expect big things, and be listening for a lot of clatter in the Industry regarding the band!"
