MPress Records: Rachael Sage & the Sequins Release Rollicking Single "Live It Up"

Joyful Third Track from Forthcoming Debut Full-Band Album, Canopy

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / July 28, 2025 / Acclaimed alt-folk-pop singer-songwriter Rachael Sage has joined forces with her stellar longtime band The Sequins to record "Live It Up," the third single to release ahead of her highly anticipated full-length studio album, Canopy (a debut full-band release for Rachael Sage & The Sequins via MPress Records). The lively piano-pop romp "Live It Up" is exactly the song the world needs in these chaotic and altogether unpredictable times. With lyrics that playfully divert listeners from news-cycle overwhelm toward equality and understanding ("I can be the hope and possibility, you can be the one to help me turn the key/There ain't no way to heaven 'till we get there all equal"), this joyful, dynamic track showcases Sage's signature keyboard chops amidst a kitchen-sink arrangement including Hammond organ, call-and-response horns, and catchy slide guitar that evokes comparisons to Mika, Elton John and Sara Bareilles.

Rachael discusses the song, saying: "With 'Live It Up' I endeavored to write a neo-classic pop-rock tune with a positive, hopeful message, as a musical antidote for these tumultuous and divisive times. I also wanted it to have the widest dynamics on my album Canopy, and a feel-good, uplifting 70's-reminiscent sound encompassing the themes of inclusivity, love and acceptance…with an almost over-the-top, irrepressible energy - like something Mika or Elton John might sing. My band The Sequins are all such passionate and expressive players and we had a fabulous time recording this song together as a band - along with Russ Johnson on horns, who definitely brings the party!"

Produced by Rachael Sage with Grammy® nominated engineer Mikhail Pivovarov, the track features Sage on vocals, piano, and percussion, accompanied by her longtime band The Sequins: Kelly Halloran (Goo Goo Dolls) on violin, Trina Hamlin (Susan Werner) on background vocals, and Andy Mac (Pete Muller & The Kindred Souls) on drums. Other contributors include Rob Curto (The Klezmatics) on Hammond B3 organ, Dave Eggar (Paul Simon) on cello, Doug Yowell (Suzanne Vega) on additional drums, Mikhail Pivovarov on bass and handclaps, Jack Petruzzelli (Patti Smith) and James Mastro (Patti Smith) on electric guitar.

Following on the heels of her two latest releases - 2023's critically acclaimed The Other Side and 2024's Another Side - Rachael Sage & The Sequins' forthcoming full-length album Canopy continues her ongoing journey of storytelling, reinvention, and emotional connection. Sage offers listeners yet another beautifully crafted, deeply heartfelt collection of songs that feel like a refuge, woven from resilience, longing, and the irrepressible determination to find light in the darkest places. Equal parts reflective, mournful and optimistic, Canopy promises to be one of her most soulful and thought-provoking works yet. Produced by Sage with Grammy® nominated engineer/bassist Mikhail Pivovarov and mixed by Pivovarov and Grammy® winner Andy Zulla (Rod Stewart), Canopy is the debut full-length album with Sage's signature band, the Sequins - violinist Kelly Halloran (Goo Goo Dolls), drummer Andy Mac (Pete Muller and the Kindred Souls) and harmonica player Trina Hamlin (Susan Werner). Additional special guests include cellist Ward Williams (Sara Bareilles), guitarists James Mastro (Ian Hunter) and Jack Petruzzelli (Patti Smith), organist Rob Curto (The Klezmatics), and cellist Dave Eggar (Paul Simon). Renowned trumpet player Russ Johnson (Elvis Costello), percussionist/drummer Doug Yowell (Joe Jackson) and rising blues harmonica star Will Wilde (Walter Trout) also contribute their talents.

Hensoldt, Renk & Rheinmetall teuer
Rheinmetall, Renk und Hensoldt haben den Rüstungsboom der letzten Jahre dominiert, doch inzwischen sind diese Titel fundamental heillos überbewertet. KGVs jenseits der 60, KUVs über 4, und das in einem politisch fragilen Umfeld mit wackelnder Haushaltsdisziplin. Für späteinsteigende Anleger kann das teuer werden.

Doch es gibt Alternativen, die bislang unter dem Radar fliegen; solide bewertet, operativ stark und mit Nachholpotenzial.

In unserem kostenlosen Report zeigen wir dir, welche 3 Rüstungsunternehmen noch Potenzial haben und wie du von der zweiten Welle der Zeitenwende profitieren kannst, ohne sich an überhitzten Highflyer zu verbrennen.

Holen Sie sich den neuesten Report! Verpassen Sie nicht, welche Aktien besonders vom weltweiten Aufrüsten profitieren dürften, und laden Sie sich das Gratis-PDF jetzt kostenlos herunter.

Dieses exklusive Angebot gilt aber nur für kurze Zeit! Daher jetzt downloaden!
