“…both Fuzz and Ex Cult will play later that same night at Death by Audio with Pampers also on the bill…”
“Tim Presley doesn’t seem to be running out of songs and this is another quality batch of paisley-scented psychedelia…
“Mikal Cronin may be better known as being bassist in Ty Segall’s band, but that may change with the release of his terrific second solo album, MCII, which will be out on Merge in May…”
“Before the night was over, Mac crowd surfed, told funny stories in between songs using voice that sounded a little like Wolfman Jack, sang at least 15 songs..”
“In addition to making music, Quintron & Miss Pussycat are filmmakers as well, their most recent work is The Mystery in Old Bathbath, which is the latest adventure for puppet pals Trixie and the Treetrunks…”

Mikal Cronin, coming to a city near you!
“Ty Segall and Ex-Cults played their second of two shows in NYC at Music Hall of Williamsburg on Saturday night (2/2), joined by Brooklyn wild childs K-Holes. Pictures from the show are in this post, including an on-stage collaboration between the touring partners. The pair also blessed Webster Hall on Friday with special guest Mac DeMarco (2/1, pictures)…”
“If Ty and his band weren’t such fierce performers, they may have been upstaged by the antics of Mac DeMarco and his band, whose onstage shenanigans (wacky voices, push-ups, covering Limp Bizkit) are becoming the stuff of legend.”
“Before the Webster Hall show, Mac Demarco played Pitchfork’s offices… He’ll be back for a show at Music Hall of Williamsburg on March 1 with Naomi Punk and Calvin Love and tickets (only ten bucks) are on sale now.”
“Mac Demarco, who will be here next week with Ty Segall, has announced a March tour surrounding his appearance at SXSW in Austin. Most of the tour is with Captured Tracks labelmate Naomi Punk and fellow Canadian Calvin Love…”
“Here, Ty sings but is on drums and like their name implies, this is the kind of thick and heavy rock that descended straight from Hendrix…”
“Not busy enough, apparently, releasing 800 records a year under his own name, Ty Segall has formed a new outfit, Fuzz, with Charlie Moonheart who has played in his live band for a while (they were also both in Epsilons). Here, Ty sings but is on drums and like their name implies, this is the kind of thick and heavy rock that descended straight from Hendrix.”
“Mac and his band have toured most of 2012 and all that playing has done wonders for them — they are tight but lythe around the groove. Songs off the new album (“Viceroy,” “Cooking Up Someting Good”) sound great and ones off his first album have a life to them that you don’t hear on the recordings.”

Of the handful of times I’ve seen Ty Segall live (admittedly only a fraction of his shows in the city), his set at Webster Hall was without a doubt the best. People often talk about performers feeding off the energy of the room–that interaction was palpable between Ty and crowd Wednesday night…
