Ty Segall – “Break A Guitar” [Video]

Ty Segall has just released a new video for “Break a Guitar,” which is the lead track off his excellent self-titled record released earlier this year.

The video projects a kaleidoscopic (literally) mashup of rock ‘n’ rollers rockin’, with the full band in full effect (Emmett Kelly, Mikal Cronin, Charles Moothart and Ben Boye) while a stream of familiar faces roll with a guitar mash-up!

Ty Segall and the Freedom Band are headed back on tour in early May to select US cities, and then it’s across the water for even MORE shows! Dates below.
