The way I'm portrayed on the Internet is partly my doing, but it's partly the people that are presenting it so, you know, people come to know this strange version of a human. It can be pretty weird because people think I'm digging through dumpsters and smell like crap all the time. Mac DeMarco crapdigdumpster share on social
I actually had a really nice guitar as a teenager. I took jazz guitar, so my mom bought me this probably $1,600 guitar. But I got really into garage rock and local bands, and I noticed they played really crappy guitars. So I thought, 'Hey, I should get a crappy guitar, too!' Mac DeMarco bandbuycrappy share on social
My grandma did opera singing for the better part of her life; she used to sing all over the place. My grandpa was a sax player, and he used to travel all over the place, too. Mac DeMarco grandmagrandpalife Change image and share on social
I'm going to try to do music for the rest of my life, but that's just trying. Maybe it's not going to work out. Who knows? Mac DeMarco lifemusicrest Change image and share on social
I don't necessarily like wearing lipstick; I just think it's funny to do. I think the darker the better, but it's whatever my girlfriend Kiera has in her purse. Mac DeMarco darkfunnygirlfriend Change image and share on social
I don't want a job, and I think I've been trying my hardest to make sure I don't have a job. Mac DeMarco hardhavejob Change image and share on social
A lot of the songs on '2' are pretty personal, but even if I'm writing about something like that, I still tend to keep it pretty simple and open-ended. I like the idea of people listening to my album and it meaning something to me but maybe meaning something else to them. Mac DeMarco albumendidea share on social
At the time I was writing the second album, I was sitting home in my underwear all day every day; I didn't have all that much to write about except for my own life and my family. Mac DeMarco albumdayfamily Change image and share on social
I like guitar. It just turned out that it's the instrument I learned to play. I have a lot of respect for it, and I'm learning more and more every day. For me, the classic band setup - guitars, drums, bass - will stay fresh forever. I don't know. I'm still into it. Mac DeMarco bandbasclassic share on social
I don't care about what people might call my style. It's just like when people call my music 'jangly,' 'dream,' 'oceanside,' whatever - I don't care. I'm just wearing whatever I can scrap together. Mac DeMarco callcaredream Change image and share on social
