Mac DeMarco Announces New Album Guitar: Hear “Home”
Stereogum
The lead single from Guitar is a soft, twinkly meditation called “Home,” and it’s all about the relationship that DeMarco has to his birthplace in British Columbia. It’s a short song, but it’s long enough to evoke a real bittersweet longing for something that you can’t always have. To make the video, DeMarco brought his camera onto a canoe and filmed himself near his mother’s house. A bunch of Canadian geese make cameos.
In addition to the new album, Mac DeMarco is also announcing some heavy touring plans that’ll take him all over the world in the months ahead. In his journeys, he’ll be joined by a bunch of openers — Mock Media, Tex Crick, Daryl Johns, Vicky Farewell — who are signed to his record label, which is called Mac’s Record Label.
