Following on from the release of his highly-praised 2019 LP 'Here Comes The Cowboy', Mac DeMarco has now announced his plans for a new studio album, arriving later this month.
The new full-length 'Five Easy Hot Dogs' has been described as "a collection of instrumental recordings from his time on the road", with each track named after the city it was composed in. It will be released on the 20th January on CD/digital with a vinyl release on the 12th May via Mac’s Record Label.
Speaking about the new LP, he said, “The plan was to start driving north, and not go home to Los Angeles until I was done with a record. Kind of like being on tour, except there weren’t any shows, and I’d just be burning money. Some places I stayed longer in than others, some of them I knew from the past, others not so much. I tried to keep things busy all the time. If I didn’t know what was up in a city, I’d just walk around ‘til someone recognized me and go from there. I met a lot of interesting people this way, and had a bunch of cool experiences.”
