Chico Ecstatic Dance feat. Sage Farris

Please welcome another new to the Chico Ecstatic Dance stage 𝐃𝐉 𝐒𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐅𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐬! It's cold outside, lets warm up and dance with some new musical nourishment! SOUND DESCRIPTION: Eclectic ~ Fearless ~ Passionate If art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time. For Sage, performing is so much more than just putting on a show - it's about telling a story. It's about evoking emotion and enriching experiences. It is prayer; it is ceremony; it is presence and freedom. To heal we must feel all the feels, and Sage is here to facilitate through the medicine of music. It is a privilege to be of service. Hailing from the Sierra Nevada mountains near the mighty Lake Tahoe and now based out of the Bay Area, Sage regularly serves as a sonic shaman all over the west coast festival, club and ecstatic dance worlds. Never one to pick a lane and stay in it; no two sets are ever alike. Always created in the moment by spontaneously collaborating and creating with the dancefloor to concoct a truly unique experience. Never predictable, Sage always aims to keep dancers on their toes. Expect the unexpected! His live sets always aim to honor the 5 Rhythms by integrating a full spectrum of tempos and genres of electronic dance music; and dancers can also usually count on occasional non-electronic throwback classics. His selections are drenched in vibrant percussion, sultry bass lines, addictive harmonies, a flair for tribal heartbeats and offer infusions of electro-swing, disco, hip-hop, R&B, soul, funk, remixed classics spliced with global influences. It all yields a tapestry of sound that engages the entire spectrum of human emotion. All emotions are beautiful. When we feel safe to be vulnerable and express ourselves, that is true intimacy.
