Shespent her teenage years as a classically trained ballerina, her college years at Stanfordfound her finishing with a degree in drama and her Graduate work earned her an MFAin theatre from the Actor’s Studio in Manhattan. Yes, Sage was artsy. But once herformal education ended, she dove headfirst into music. For the better part of 25 yearsSage has been putting out album after album of some of the finest indie pop you’ll ever hear.Her new album Character explores what comprises the nuances of someone’s personalityand it’s a catchy, moving and stirring journey through what keeps us up at night as muchas what helps us sleep. In this candid chat, Sage talks to Alex about recording the new album,her recovery from cancer and the complexities of persona.
