Greg Sage was born on October 21, 1951 in Portland, Oregon. He is an American guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter who is best known for being the primary songwriter of the Portland-based seminal punk rock group, Wipers.

Greg Sage’s fascination with recording began at a young age. In the 7th grade, Sage acquired a professional disc-cutting lathe with which he would cut records for himself and his schoolmates. This early experience not only sparked his interest in music but also laid the foundation for his innovative approach to recording and producing music.

Sage founded Wipers in Portland in 1977. Sage’s dark, reflective lyrics and his unorthodox arrangements quickly gained Wipers a cult following; likewise, their music has since had a profound influence over many forthcoming artists over the almost five decades since their inception. Some have defined Sage’s musical approach as “substance-over-style” as well as “intricate”, “honest”, and so it goes.

Beyond his work with the Wipers, Sage has also pursued a solo career, releasing records such as Straight Ahead (1985), and Sacrifice (For Love) (1991). He operates his own label, Zeno Records, out of Phoenix, Arizona where he currently resides. Sage continues to influence new generations of musicians with his innovative approach to production and songwriting.
