Since the early 2010s, M. Sage has crafted a wide-ranging catalog of music across labels like Geographic North, Orange Milk, and Moon Glyph. In 2023, he debuted on RVNG Intl. with Paradise Crick alongside work in the ambient jazz group Fuubutsushi. His next solo release, Tender / Wading (out Sept 26 on RVNG Intl.), reflects his return to Colorado after years in Chicago. Inspired by tending land with his young family, the album contrasts Crick’s synthetic tones, exploring domesticity, memory, and growth through a tactile, grounded lens.
