Award-Winning Artist
Rachael Sage
Premieres Uplifting New Video
"Try Try Try"

New York, NY: Four-time Independent Music Award-winner Rachael Sage premieres her new video for the song, "Try Try Try", partnering with online music magazine, Blurt. The clip will also debut live for fans on January 17, 2017 following Sage's performance at Rockwood Music Hall in New York City.

"Try Try Try" is the fourth charting single from Sage's 2016 album Choreographic, a conceptually accessible tribute to her first love: dance. As a former dancer herself who attended The School Of American Ballet in her teens, the video for "Try Try Try" blends classical ballet with edgy guitar-pop, fashioning what she playfully terms "ballet-pop".

Directed by award-winning filmmaker/photographer Tom Moore, the clip features an original pas de deux created by renowned choreographer Sarah O'Gleby and performed by ballerina Abigail Simon and dancer/actor Marty Lawson. Sage also appears in the vibrant, highly stylized video alongside members of her live band, The Sequins.

Additional behind the scenes content was also filmed with the team and performers. The first clip features choreographer O'Gleby working with the dancers, rehearsing and refining the beautifully performed pieces as well as incorporating the dancers into the scenes. Part two focuses more on Rachael, the band and the crew - bringing the viewer on set and wrapping up the colorful, creative process.

Sage hopes that dancers and non-dancers alike will enjoy her latest video for one reason above all: 

"This is a song about that moment where you decide to throw all your plans out the window and commit to the unexpected. It's about embracing love when every fiber in your being is telling you to protect yourself and run - and I think we can all use a bit of that sentiment right now!"
