MAC DeMARCO’S NEW SINGLE “HOLY” OUT NOW OFF HIS NEW ALBUM GUITAR COMING AUGUST 22 ON MAC’S RECORD LABEL/ROYAL MOUNTAIN RECORDS
WORLD TOUR KICKS OFF IN AUGUST
Mac DeMarco releases “Holy,” the second single/video from his forthcoming album, Guitar, out August 22nd via Mac’s Record Label. Following last month’s “soft, twinkly meditation,” “Home,” “Holy” is a lilting, laidback reflection on spirituality. In the song’s opening lines, Mac sings: “Miracle, reveal yourself to me // Miracle, your help could set me free” leading into the conclusion: “Curse, carried on forever in me // Curse, from which I may never be free // Curse from down below // Holy.”
As with the video for “Home,” Mac filmed the “Holy” video himself. He comments, “I waded around in the ocean fully clothed for a couple hours and completely filled my boots with seawater. There were some other shots on some rocks I kept trying too, but in the end the clip of me falling in the garden and eating the apple was best. Thank you for listening.”
Guitar was written and recorded in its entirety in November 2024 at Mac’s home in Los Angeles. Except for the mastering, which was handled by David Ives, Mac created and handled all aspects of this record on his own, including mixing the album in Canada, and shooting the artwork on tripods. Mac comments, “I think Guitar is as close to a true representation of where I’m at in my life today as I can manage to put to paper. I’m happy to share this music, and look forward to playing these songs as many places as I’m able.”
As previously announced, Mac’s entirely sold-out 2025 tour of North America, Europe and the UK begins late August with three shows at The Greek Theatre. The 2026 runs include Asia, the midwest and southern parts of the United States, and newly announced dates in South America. All US dates are sold out apart from Detroit, which was moved to a larger venue. Supporting Mac on tour are exclusively artists on Mac’s Record Label: Mock Media, Tex Crick, Daryl Johns and Vicky Farewell.
