“The majority of this album is acoustic guitar, synthesizer, some drum machine, and one song is electric guitar. It was a different vibe.”ĭeMarco wrote some demos for This Old Dog on an acoustic guitar, an eye-opening method for him.
When that happens, you really get to know the songs. But this time, I wrote them and they sat. Usually I just write, record, and put it out no problem. But then I realized that moving to a new city, and starting a new life takes time. DeMarco says, “I demoed a full album, and as I was moving to the West Coast I thought I’d get to finishing it quickly. Arriving in California with a grip of demos he’d written in New York, he realized after a few months of setting up his new shop that the gap was giving him perspective. It was a little space-in time, location (he moved from Queens to Los Angeles), and method-that inspired DeMarco while making This Old Dog. In conjunction with today’s album announcement, DeMarco is announcing a North American tour and sharing two lead singles - “My Old Man” and “This Old Dog.” They are the album’s openers and right off the bat, they show a new sonic direction and a glimpse into the very personal nature of this record. 26-year old MacBriare Samuel Lanyon DeMarco) will release This Old Dog, his third album and first full-length since 2014’s Salad Days, on May 5th 2017 worldwide via Captured Tracks.
