RACHAEL SAGE - Under My Canopy

For Your Grammy® Consideration:

BEST RECORDING PACKAGE - CANOPY

Rachael Sage’s CANOPY is more than an album package - it’s a 40-panel, limited-edition work of art. This bespoke CD concertina hardcover book and slipcase unfolds into an immersive visual world of Sage’s original paintings and striking photography. Featuring photographs by Shervin Lainez (St. Vincent, Sara Bareilles, Lucy Dacus) and Anna Azarov, CANOPY was co-designed by Sage and Spit + Image Design (Tori Amos, Stevie Wonder, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons) and has already been honored with a 2026 GDUSA Design Award.
