[photos by PSquared Photography – complete set at brooklynvegan]
I’m not sure there is a currently working musician who produces as consistently excellent music — live or on record — at does Ty Segall. His new album Manipulator is yet another Ty album that shines from start to finish and the tour in support has raged from city to city. Last week Ty Segall came to NYC for two shows at Webster Hall (alas no secret DBA show) and we were there for the first night on Wednesday. Ty’s fans always vociferously exhibit their love for his music and this night was no different. Five songs into the set the venue’s crew had to remove the metal photo pit barrier to avoid crushing people to death. After a quick break, the set continued in earnest and the new space permitted a neverending parade of stage divers and jumpers, including ultimately the artist himself. The setlist was similar to most recent tours in that the band played most of the new album (in this case 13 of 17 tracks) before the second half of the night was dedicated to the older material. But the crowd was with them all the way — old or new — for the full ninety minute set. We’re streaming one of our favorite tracks from the new album “Green Belly”. Ty Segall’s US tour is coming to a close in the next few days, but he’ll then spend six weeks touring through Europe.
I recorded this set from the soundboard perch in the front and center below the balcony with the Schoeps cards mixed with an excellent feed from house FOH Rafael. The sound quality is superb. Enjoy!

You wouldn’t happen to also have WAND’s set would you?
I am hoping we do… I asked about this as well :)
I did record Wand and I’m sure it sounds as good as this set. But I do need to reach out to the band to get permission to post it here.
you should email the singer Cory, he’s super nice; his email (and his amazing solo project) can be found here:

Excellent. I was just thinking the other day “I’ve really got to here the Manipulator material live”. Boom! There it is. An incredible recording, as always. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Wand is cleared to post and coming soon.
Just want to say thanks for all your awesome work from a fan in Canada. Saw Ty live in Montreal on Sept 21, was insane. Super excited to hear the NYC set. Thanks!
