    Prolific garage-rocker Ty Segall surprise-released a new track today titled, “Alta.” The song fits squarely in his wheelhouse: catchy, crunchy, and it features expert playing courtesy of Mr. Segall and his beloved Freedom Band (Mikal Cronin, Emmett Kelly and others).

    From a press release:

    It’s a new day in the world of TySegall, and every truly new day means another truly great song! Captured in gleaming widescreen, “Alta” is a hometown jam that Ty (with his Freedom Band) has been playing at shows all over the place this year.

    No word yet on if this is part of a larger release (it was recorded with producer extraordinaire Steve Albini, by the way) but you can stream “Alta” now and be sure to see Ty @ Desert Daze Festival, October 13th.
