CRITIC’S PICK: Ty Segall
Recommended by Hal Horowitz as part of Creative Loafing’s May 2026 Critic’s Picks
Wed., May 6
Ty Segall
Upchuck, Variety Playhouse
Singer/songwriter and garage music revivalist Segall is a lot of things, but lazy is not one of them. He has only been releasing albums since 2008, but already has about two dozen. Most flit from style to style with the frequency of an over-caffeinated dachshund. He jumps from metal, to bluesy psychedelia and even quieter music on a journey to confound and confuse even his most dedicated followers. It’s likely we’ll get music from his latest incarnation as a dark, somewhat glam, rocker with retro impulses, where he landed on 2025s Possession. No matter which Segall shows up though, you’re sure to get a professional and challenging rock show with lots of guitar and attitude. A little of opener’s Upchuck’s punked-up Stooges rawk goes a long way. — Hal Horowitz
