Mac DeMarco will release a new album this spring.
'This Old Dog', the follow up to 2014's 'Salad Days', is due out on May 4 through Captured Tracks. Check out its two lead singles, My Old Man and the record's title track, along with the tracklist and artwork, below.
Discussing the album, DeMarco said:
“I demoed a full album, and as I was moving to the West Coast I thought I’d get to finishing it quickly. But then I realized that moving to a new city, and starting a new life takes time. Usually I just write, record, and put it out; no problem. But this time, I wrote them and they sat. When that happens, you really get to know the songs. It was a different vibe.”
He continued to explain how the record revolves more around acoustic than electric guitar:
“The majority of this album is acoustic guitar, synthesizer, some drum machine, and one song is electric guitar. So this is a new thing for me.”
