Rock and Roll Night Club

Mac Demarco debuts with his album Makeout Videotape. Think Scott Walker meets Ariel Pink.

Formerly known as Makeout Videotape, Mac Demarco is the antithesis to your stereotypical singer-songwriter. Disregarding the seriously somber moments, he replaces them with whimsical and youthful spontaneity, while retaining the endearing and subtle commentaries that exude his familiarity.

Promptly after leaving his Edmonton garage for Vancouver, he embarked on a North American tour accompanying fellow Canadians Japandroids on a grand voyage of enlightenment and alcoholic debauchery.

Mac Demarco is a weird cat cultivating an affinity for occult imagery, nudity, and social satire. But his most impressive trait is his undeniable and instinctual ability to compose magical pop jangles, of which he'll likely refer to as "Jizz Jazz." His dusted jams have garnished him accolades that are as ever-increasing as his songwriting abilities; his sound rendering comparisons, but in a nomadic fashion alluding no distinct origin.
