January 24, 2026A true pro. Between stellar musicianship and entertaining, Sage nailed it. From soundcheck, to working the audience, connecting after the show, to break down, she had it all together. The audience loved her and she kept their attention for the whole set. Hire her and you won't have to worry about much else.

January 22, 2026Sage O’Silver blew us away. She’s a one‑woman pirate powerhouse—tearing through fiddle tunes, belting sea songs, clogging like lightning, and swapping instruments with effortless flair. She even slips in real pirate history that keeps the crowd hooked. Her energy is contagious, her versatility and technical prowess are mind‑boggling, and her wide-ranging talents and unmistakably one‑of‑a‑kind style are mesmerizing from the first note to the last.
