Mac DeMarco returns with Guitar 12 stripped-back, soul-searching songs captured in under two weeks. After the sprawling experiment of One Wayne G and the meditative instrumental journey of Five Easy Hot Dogs, Guitar marks a return to form for Mac DeMarco intimate, melodic, and unmistakably Mac.

Written, performed, and recorded entirely by DeMarco in his Los Angeles home studio over twelve days in November 2024, the album feels like a snapshot of an artist taking stock of where hes at emotionally, creatively, and sonically.

Gone are the antics and abstractions. Guitar is grounded, honest, and warm. With woozy jangle-pop textures, heartfelt lyrics, and a gentle melancholy running beneath its surface, the album recalls the emotional clarity of This Old Dog and the simplicity of 2. DeMarcos signature blend of slacker charm and sincerity is here in full bloom.
