Mac DeMarco has shared a new video today (30 March), in which people wearing dog masks kiss to the slow jam This Old Dog. “If there’s enough time, we’ll probably play most of the new album,” he said.Īfter performing in different parts of the Bay Area such as Berkeley, San Francisco and Oakland, Demarco is excited to play in Sonoma for the first time.The self-directed visual shows people hanging out in Los Angeles wearing dog masks
“It’s not really up to me or anybody else making music.”ĭeMarco and his cohorts have only played one club show with the new material after hitting the stage at Coachella, he’s excited about the upcoming tour and expects to play new songs at Gundlach. “People take whatever they want from it,” DeMarco said. Once he puts a song out into the world, he likes to let it go and be open for interpretation. “I just let it come naturally and if people want to listen that’s cool.” “The first person I want to satisfy or make happy is myself,” he said. The key for DeMarco while creating is to not worry about what other people will appreciate. Other videos include a number of quirky antics, and fresh off the set for his latest music video, the songwriter hinted that there would be some new mask involved in his next one. Though the outfit ensemble for the video required DeMarco to sit in a make-up chair for eight hours, it’s just the type of aesthetic fans expect of him. Take the video for his new song “Nobody,” which has characteristically creative visuals of DeMarco casually puffing a cigar while dressed as a lizard in a cowboy hat. The good humor DeMarco displays also makes an appearance during his music videos. “Nothing is going to sound different if you’re not wearing pants,” he joked. It’s this way of thinking, when DeMarco is truly and utterly himself, that shines through on each recording. Maybe I’ll put on pants sometimes but maybe not,” he said.
“I could have gone to the studio or worked with a bunch of musicians or whatever but I feel like there’s something special about the results you get if you do it on your own.”įor the multi-instrumentalist, the ideal recording scenario is at home, where he’s relaxed and comfortable. “I did this one in my garage,” Demarco said. While the indie-rocker could have very easily gone with an overproduced sound, DeMarco is all about simplicity and laid back vibes. But having his own imprint doesn’t mean DeMarco’s tradition of recording music at home isn’t still in the forefront while working on new material.
The new album, the follow-up to 2017’s “This Old Dog,” will be his first on the aptly named Mac’s Record Label, founded last year. Yet he remains true to his roots with his new record titled “Here Comes the Cowboy” and will kick off his North American tour in support of his fourth studio album May 7 at Gundlach Bundschu Winery in Sonoma. I’m a slacker-rocker, my music is new wave - it’s hard to follow,” he said by phone from his Los Angeles home. “Somebody calls you one thing one day and maybe it sticks or maybe it doesn’t. Not that the singer pays attention to the labels his music is given. In other words, DeMarco’s work has earned himself the title of indie-rock royalty. His records “2,” “Salad Days,” and “This Old Dog,” have given the Canadian-born star a reputation for delivering music that gets radio play while standing out with playful lyrics and what some might consider an out-of-place chord here or there. “I’m lucky people even listen to me in the first place,” Mac DeMarco said after playing for the third time at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival in Indio earlier this month.ĭespite DeMarco’s humble attitude, the singer-songwriter has performed at dozens of festivals such as Coachella, Outside Lands and Treasure Island, as well as a fair share of headline shows over the course of his career.
