Ty Segall is an American musician and songwriter. He sings, plays guitar and drums and is a member of thebands The Traditional Fools, Epsilons, Party Fowl, Sic Alps, The Perverts, and Ty Segall
Band.Working as a solo act and in a number of bands and side projects, Ty Segall has released dozens of albums that have helped to define and establish the parameters of garage punk for his generation. Not content to stick to one specific style or sound, he's also ventured into hard rock, folk-rock, and heavy metal, used instruments ranging from synthesizers to xylophones, and made solo records played on acoustic guitars.
Depending on the album, Segall can sound raw (2016's Emotional Mugger) or refined (2013's Sleeper), and he's capable of focused one-man-band efforts (2009's Lemons) as well as sprawling and eclectic
releases with a range of collaborators (2018's Freedom's Goblin). He proves just as compelling when stripping back the noise and adding synths, as on 2021's Harmonizer, composing film music in classic style (2022's Whirlybird), recording at home on his own (2022's subdued Hello, Hi and 2024's all-percussion Love Rudiments) or layering acoustic and electric instruments in classic rock style on 2025's Possession. No matter the sonic setting, Segall's strong melodic frameworks, creative restlessness, and the infectious intensity of his songs and performances are the constants in his ever-evolving discography.
Ty Segall first garnered public acclaim as the lead singer of Orange County, California garage rock revivalists the Epsilons. With that band, he practiced a rawer, snottier take on Strokes/Vines/White
Stripes-style rock, occasionally delving into more retro territory. When that band splintered, he struck out on his own and started cranking out lo-fi albums, beginning with a self-titled effort on Castle Face in 2008. On his solo album Lemons, however, Segall delivered a much more traditional sound, studiously re-creating '60s guitar tones and drenching his tracks in old-school reverb. The stomping results bore a striking resemblance to early garage masters such as the Sonics and the Standells, as well as proto-punks the Stooges and bedroom folk antecedent Alexander "Skip" Spence. He returned in 2010 with Melted.
Segall's music has been described as garage rock, garage rock revival, lo-fi, indie rock and psychedelic rock. Segall has stated in interviews that his favorite band of all time is Hawkwind Notable glam rockers David Bowie and Marc Bolan heavily influenced Segall's early career, as well as heavy rock
and punk bands such as Black Sabbath, Kiss, The Stooges, and Black Flag (especially in the Ty Segall Band). However, over time Segall's output has gotten mellower on albums such as Goodbye Bread and Sleeper, taking cues from Neil Young, The Byrds, The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, The Beatles (even being compared to John Lennon vocally on some of his albums), and early T. Rex (when they were known as Tyrannosaurus Rex) and Grateful Dead.A big source of his inspiration also comes from the San Francisco garage and indie rock scenes, from which he has named bands such as Thee Oh Sees (being personal friends with frontman John Dwyer).

2. TY SEGALLL BAND - SLAUTERHOUSE 2012
The first release credited to Ty Segall Band, and for that matter the only full-length with that band’s
lineup, Slaughterhouse is an absolute riot. More than a nominal nod to The Stooges’ Fun House, the album is every bit part of that proto-punk freakout’s intense lineage, driven by furious punk songs that represent the heaviest material Segall’s ever put on record. What’s not up for debate is the overwhelming power of this record, a fuzzed-out, thunderstruck exercise in volume that’s at once streamlined and sprawling. Segall has never rocked harder than this—at least not yet.

3. TY SEGALL & WHITE FENCE - HAIR 2012
Ty Segall’s released a number of collaborations and new permutations of backing bands, and in some
cases bands under a different name entirely, so it’s not so surprising that some of his best work is collaborative, whether with the Ty Segall Band, The Freedom Band, or sharing the studio with White Fence. Hair, his first collab with White Fence, is a short and wildly satisfying set of vintage psych that’s fuzzy, lo-fi and wonderfully, accessibly weird. Acoustic and electric guitars swirl and intertwine, existing as much in harmony as in counterpoint.

4. TY SEGALL - SLEEPER 2013
Ty Segall’s most often recognized for his preference for heavy layers of fuzz, elevated BPMs and a kind of
reckless rock ‘n’ roll abandon. None of which is present on Sleeper, an album on which Segall strips away the distortion and volume in order to highlight his songwriting in more of a psychedelic folk context. Each of its 10 songs is built around acoustic guitars and mostly stripped down arrangements, though he manages to explore a pretty wide range within the unplugged setup.

5. TY SEGALL - MANIPULATOR 2014
When Ty Segall released Manipulator in 2014, he nearly doubled his usual LP running time of 30-ish minutes. That, in itself, felt like something of a landmark moment in his progression, which had by and
large been characterized by a long string of 30-minute eruptions of garage rock with varying degrees of folk influence, glam swagger, heavy metal muscle or punk rock intensity. Manipulator, in expanding the tracklist and pushing ever closer to the one-hour mark, ties together all of the disparate threads of Segall’s previous string of albums. As a result it’s his most cohesively diverse set of songs on the whole, and an ideal starting point to his catalog, not simply because of how much ground it covers but because it’s also a uniformly great collection of rock ‘n’ roll songs, no matter how overstuffed it might seem on paper.

6. TY GARRETT SEGALL - EMMOTIONAL MUGGER 2016
Ty Segall is one of the indie rock universe’s quintessential workhorses. And while averaging about an album a year isn’t necessarily a recipe for consistent quality (just take a look at late-period Robert Pollard
—or rather, don’t), Segall is never anything less than listenable. He also manages to avoid predictability. Emotional Mugger, Segall’s latest effort, is relatively within the fuzzy, scuzzy sonic wheelhouse he’s established during his eight-year career but nonetheless boasts a considerable amount of surprises. The question, I suppose, is whether Segall will drop a truly great album on us, one that makes listeners beyond his core audience perk up and say, “Whoa. Holy shit.” The closest thing to such an achievement up to now would probably be Slaughterhouse (made under the Ty Segall Band moniker). Emotional Mugger, in its screeching-loud, balls-out weirdness, is on about the same level as that record.

7. TY SEGALL & WHITE FENCE - JOY 2018
Joy is a collaborative album by Californian musicians Ty Segall and Tim Presley (playing under the name
White Fence). It was released in July 2018 under Drag City Records. Known to the world at large for their twisted, guitarrific psych-pop takes on modern rock, Ty and White Fence’s Tim Presley are known to each other as well; they sometimes make records and play out as Ty Segall and White Fence. Since 2012, they’ve released two AMAZING records on Drag City, which just goes to show, always get that chocolate in your peanut butter! LOOK OUT when they get together.

8. TY SEGALL - FIRST TASTE 2019
First Taste is the twelfth studio album by American musician Ty Segall. It was released on August 2, 2019
under Drag City. The first single from the album, "Taste" was released June 4, 2019.In support of the album, Segall and The Freedom Band announced a tour of the US through July to October 2019, and then a European tour after October. A first taste of Ty? Hardly, but First Taste erects extreme new sonic skylines for Segall to soar over. His natural state of urgency is paired with a thirsty contemplative vibe as Ty examines both sides now, twisting some of his best songs and production wack into hard left turns both sweet and hot.
