“I do get labeled as a guitar band, but the only reason is that's the instrument I know how to play. The guitar is serving the song I'm writing. But I'm learning how to play keyboard better now so that'll start serving the song as well; it'll be another flavor. I'm not going to switch it up with big, fat drum machine beats and real swoopy synths, but yeah...” KnowsWritingWellsRealReasonPlayBigsSongKnow HowBandBeatsMachinesYeahInstrumentsGuitarFatsServingFlavorKeyboardsBetter Now Author:Mac DeMarco

“I started piano lessons at age six but didn't take music seriously until I was a teenager, when I thought about a career in music.

“In high school I was in a band called Goodfight, but it was more me running around on stage. It was very punk inspired. Then I started to get into indie-rock and older music and decided I wanted to write my own stuff. I quit the band.
