Mac DeMarco

In the summer of 2014, Mac DeMarco was riding high on the success of his critically acclaimed album 'Salad Days,' which had dropped just a few months earlier. This live recording of 'Blue Boy' at KEXP during Bumbershoot captures DeMarco's laid-back charm and signature style, blending jangle pop with a bit of indie rock nonchalance. The performance showcases his distinct voice and knack for storytelling, which really resonated with fans. Fun fact: DeMarco is known for his quirky stage presence and his love for retro aesthetics, often referring to himself as a 'slacker rock' artist—a nod to his relaxed vibe. This moment was a significant part of his growing recognition in the indie music scene, and he continued to build on this momentum in the years that followed.
