Ty Segall Drops New Album 'Love Rudiments' and First Single

Ty Segall returns with 'Love Rudiments,' an all-percussion album that redefines his musical journey. Check out the thrilling new single “The Dance” and discover the magic of drums like never before!

Ty Segall is back with a bang, announcing his second album of 2024, Love Rudiments, set to drop on August 30th via Drag City. The first single, “The Dance (Edit),” is already making waves, and it's a must-listen!

‘Love Rudiments’ is a unique project for Segall, showcasing his deep-rooted love for drums and percussion. This entirely instrumental album is a departure from his usual vocal and guitar-driven sound. Segall says drums were his first love, and this album is all about that passion, exploring a romantic arc through four song cycles centered on percussion. The single, “The Dance (Edit),” perfectly captures a couple’s first dance using a mix of drums, vibraphone, tambourine, wood blocks, and electronic pads.

Earlier this year, Segall released ‘Three Bells’, a double album that included hits like “Void,” “Eggman,” and “My Room.” Now, with Love Rudiments, he's ready to take fans on a new rhythmic journey.

Upcoming Tour

Segall also announced a 2025 acoustic tour, kicking off in San Diego on February 20th and running through April 30th in Boise, Idaho. This solo tour promises a more intimate experience, focusing on his vocal and guitar skills without any percussion. The tour will hit major cities like San Francisco, Vancouver, Austin, Nashville, Washington D.C., Brooklyn, Cleveland, and Chicago. Tickets go on sale Friday, July 12th at 11:00 a.m. CST on Segall’s website and select dates via Ticketmaster.

Listen to “The Dance (Edit)”

“The Dance (Edit)” is the third movement in the second suite of Love Rudiments, themed around a couple’s first dance. Segall’s expertise on the drum set shines through, complemented by the vibraphone, tambourine, electronic pads, and woodblocks. The three-minute track is a testament to Segall’s versatility and passion for percussion. Check out the track below and get ready to groove!
