Ty Segall: biography

Born on June 8, 1987 in Laguna Beach, California, and named Ty Garrett Segall, the prolific musician is of American nationality and belongs to the Caucasian ethnicity. Nothing is known about his biological parents, but he was raised by a lawyer and his artist wife who adopted him from an early age.

Segall was a very active child growing up. Although he didn’t show an interest in music until high school, he would have done well as a surfer had he continued in the sport. He started surfing at the age of ten, but turned to music as an escape in his teens. Ty Segall describes his teenage years as emotionally unstable and calls himself a very existential eighteen-year-old drinker for whom music served as a cathartic effect to his instability.

Ty Segall attended high school in Laguna Beach and is an alumnus of the University of San Francisco where he earned a degree in media studies. After graduating, he worked for eight months building grow boxes for cannabis plants, but focused entirely on his music career thereafter.

His career

Segall’s musical catalog is as prolific as it is diverse. He began his musical odyssey as a part-time musician in various underground bands and recorded a lot of success, both as a member of a band and during his solo career. He went solo in 2008 after garnering public acclaim as the lead singer of an Orange County, California-based garage/rock revivalist band – Epsilons. The musician has since released nearly a dozen studio albums, two concert albums, three compilation albums, three EPs, 19 singles and 16 music videos.

He has also worked in several side projects. His first solo release was the tape Corne La Licorne which was released on the Wizard Mountain label and later by HBSP-2X on vinyl. From 2008 to 2011, he released four studio albums, including a self-titled lo-fi effort, Ty Segall (2008); others are Lemons (2009), Fondu in 2010 and Goodbye bread arrived in 2011.

The year 2012 was rather busy for the musician with the release of three albums. He recorded Slaughterhouse with his touring band billed as the Ty Segall Band and released it on June 26. In April he recorded another collaborative album, Hair with Tim Presley of White Fence and on October 9 he released a solo album, Twins. It was a compilation of his varied influences and styles up to his career.

In 2013 Segall formed a new hard rock band named Fuzz with Charles Moothart and Roland Cosio. The same year, he released a mostly acoustic solo album titled Sleeper, in August, and Fuzz’s self-titled debut album arrived in October 2013. His first double album, Manipulator followed in 2014; he incorporated psychic music into the album. Although he didn’t record a solo album in 2015, Segall produced the Peacers’ debut album and released an EP, Mr. Face on Famous Class and a second album Fuzz, II in October. The following month, he announced a new studio album, Emotional Mugger,described as his first experimental rock album, and it finally arrived in 2016. Upon its release, Segall formed a backing band, a high-concept band called The Muggers.

His ninth album, an outfit of the second title, Ty Segall came in 2017. In it he shows his ability to play all the rock repertoire. As with Emotional Muggers, Segall formed another backup band, The Freedom Band, after the album’s release. He is also a member of the CIA, Broken Bat and GØGGS. His latest album, Le lutin de la liberté arrived on January 26, 2018.
