Mac Demarco started his career in 2008 when he self-released his first album “Heat Wave”. Now Demarco has produced five albums and the latest one, “Salad Days” was released in April 2014. He is known with his soft rock music and rather-sluggard style. His guitar-based compositions create uplifting tunes that are easy to listen. Demarco himself describes his music as a “jizz jazz”. In his latest album “Salad Days, Demarco sounds more relaxed and the tunes are softer compared to his previous albums. Despite that, the gap-toothed Canadian stays with his relaxed music which goes with lyrics, which are relatable to everyday life.
One of Demarco’s advantages is that he is able to make his live performances be as good as the recordings, or sometimes even better. Plus, his slacker style fits his music very well. With plain t-shirts, jeans, and baseball caps, Demarco adds to the impression of his relaxed tunes. Being loose, goofy, and sometimes even raunchy during live performances have been also Demarco’s style. By engaging the audiences, he lightens up the atmosphere and make the crowd have fun.
It seems that his style is what makes him lovable, creating music to express and not to impress. Demarco isn’t the kind of musician who would change and follow trends to raise his popularity. He once said during his interview with The Guardian that as long as his music is making people happy, then why does he have to change anything?
Mac Demarco is coming to Jakarta this month and will be performing live at the SCBD area on the 22nd of January. The performance will be opened by Jirapah. If you feel like loosen up yourself, Mac Demarco will give you positive tunes and an uplifting performance to start 2015. Click here to find out more information about the event.

Director Robert Benton deliveres the story by focusing on the relationship between Ted Kramer (Dustin Hoffman) and his son, Billy (Justin Henry). The film revolves mostly around Ted, a career-oriented man trying to take care of Billy on his own after his wife, Joanna (Meryl Streep), left him. Benton also shows Ted’s struggle to be a responsible father in order to win over the custody of his beloved son. The father-son relationship was shown in one of the most memorable scenes, where Billy has an accident at a playground and Ted has to sprint several blocks through ongoing traffic to bring Billy to the hospital, showing his tenderness and sense of responsibility toward Billy. The film ends with a touching conversation between Ted and Joanna which also adds to the emotional value in Kramer vs Kramer.
