Saige Noelle is a Connecticut-based vocalist, actress and multi-instrumentalist. Her new single, "Sneaky Link" pairs sparse, bubbling synth-rythm beats with Saige's signature saccharine vocals. "Sneaky Link" is the ultimate dreamy R&B anthem, preluding a much-anticipated album on the horizon, and will be performed live at the Violet Hour. Follow her work @thesaigenoelle
