Mac DeMarco

In February 2017, when Mac DeMarco recorded the "Take Away Show" in Paris, he was in a significant phase of his career, having just released his album "This Old Dog" a few months prior in May 2017. This album marked a shift in DeMarco's signature sound, incorporating more introspective lyrics and a lo-fi aesthetic that resonated well with his growing fan base. The performance of "Still Beating" and "This Old Dog" during the live recording showcases his unique blend of indie rock and psych pop, while highlighting his laid-back persona. Notably, DeMarco is known for his charming and approachable style, both in his music and during performances, which enhances the intimate feel of the "Take Away Show" format. This period was crucial for DeMarco as he solidified his status in the indie music scene, transitioning from cult followings to wider recognition.
