One of the band members is an Oakwood alum whose sibling is a current student here. The event is organized annually by our Student Council and is open to all 7th-12th grade students. Ty Segall did indeed play our semi-formal on Thursday night. The school’s student council moderator, William Perkins Tift, was kind enough to share a quick confirmation: A little digging led to a HS events page for the Oakwood school in Southern California ( screen grab) and a quick tweet to them received an equally quick RT. Would Mikal Cronin, Ty Segall and Charlie Moothart-aka the Ty Segall band-rock a winter formal? These three might be the most productive and buzziest musicians of the modern garage rock scene (see the five albums Segall has put out under his name and/or Fuzz in the last two years, or Cronin’s excellent MCII in 2013). Yet, they’ll offer up a few slow dance numbers?īut Cronin’s not a Twitter jokester and the visual evidence had appropriate decorations (check out that stage curtain) and attire (excellent HS formal tie choice by Cronin). So pardon me if this seemed a bit unusual, perhaps even too good to be true. Ask those who attended Hill Valley’s Enchantment Under the Sea formal in 1955. It’s a moment you’ll remember for the rest of your life, hell, sometimes it changes your life. Your run of the mill high school formal is suddenly transformed into a once-in-a-lifetime experience when a killer band surprises the crowd. Huh? This kind of scenario seems to only play out in movies.
