With 'First Taste' set to arrive on August 2 via Drag City, the stripped-down new track follows the previously shared singles Radio and Taste in previewing the new album. It finds the prolific artist combining with Freedom Band member Shannon Lay to reflect on his past. He said:
"Ice Plant is a fever dream reflection of my childhood... A past no more. Was very fun to sing with the amazing Shannon Lay. My neighborhood in Laguna Beach was and still is covered in Ice Plants and Eucalyptus trees that would fall on our family’s car and stain the paint job. One winter we tried to surf down the Ice Plant hills."
Segall and the Freedom Band have residencies lined up in Los Angeles, New York, and London. Each show will feature a performance of 'First Taste' in full along with select cuts from Segall's career.
'First Taste' follows this year's live record, 'Deforming Lobes', and the 2018 double LP 'Freedom's Goblin'.
