Following an appearance at Field Day London, Mac DeMarco visited BBC Radio 6 Music’s studios for an acoustic and full-band session.

Indie rocker Mikal Cronin and band began a UK/EU tour last Thursday (5/28) at Primavera Sound, in support of their third studio album MCIII, out now on Merge. We caught them playing London’s 100 Club last night (6/1), with pictures in this post.

Mikal Cronin has teamed with Funny or Die to create a video for “Say”, one of the standout tracks appearing on the singer-songwriter’s latest album, MCIII.
Segall was a savage behind the kit. Grimy riff after grimy riff oozed off the stage.
And then the pros took the stage. King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizards pulled the full crowd, and Fowlers was packed. Their music is thrashy and wild, while still holding tight to a clean sound.
Mutilator Defeated at Last is Thee Oh Sees’ first post-hiatus LP to be recorded using the band’s re-staffed touring lineup.
Melbourne garage rockers King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have both found themselves slated into two US music festivals this upcoming September: Life is Beautiful Music and Art Festival & Hopscotch Music Festival
Tim Presley of White Fence and Welsh singer/songwriter/guitarist Cate Le Bon have teamed up as DRINKS and are releasing their debut album, Hermits On Holiday, on August 21. They have released the album’s title track, “Hermits On Holiday,” featuring Le Bon on lead vocals.
Guitar chops, drum chops, and most definitely bass chops: The Fuzz has it all. The band has a reputation for knowing how to improvise, jam, and shred through a set list. That’s why it sold out the Great American Music Hall Wednesday night on a double bill with only the support of Los Angeles’ Lamps.
San Francisco’s Tim Presley and Welsh-born Cate Le Bon both have fruitful careers in their own right; the former has released a string of albums as White Fence, and the latter is a respected solo songwriter. Now, they’ve teamed up for a collaborative project called Drinks, with an album coming out this summer.
Beady-eyed White Fence fans might’ve noticed Cate Le Bon playing in Tim Presley’s band last autumn, and now the two have paired up for a collaborative project, DRINKS.
Drinks is the new duo of Cate Le Bon, the whispery Welsh singer-songwriter, and Tim Presley, the idiosyncratic Bay Area psych rocker who records as White Fence.
Cate Le Bon wrote some of my favorite words of 2013 on her album Mug Museum. White Fence is the swirly psych-like music of Tim Presley. Cate and Tim are friends — Cate played guitar on a tour with White Fence — and so now there’s this: DRINKS. DRINKS has an album coming August 21 and this is the title track, called “Hermits on Holiday.”
The humidity peaks in the dark nightclub packed with hundreds of excited, drunk bodies, when New Orleans one-man-band Quintron turns the key on his “Drum Buddy”, lighting it up like a miniature aurora borealis.
Quintron And Miss Pussycat exemplify the best of modern New Orleans rock. An eccentric and arty twist on swamp rock, the group mixes synthesizer sounds with modern science as Quintron messes with instruments of his own creation. His latest analog synth invention features prominently in his band the Weather Warlock, a term that’s apt considering the machine is controlled by weather patterns. Below, The A.V. Club has the premiere of the new video for “I Hear Voices.” Though it’s an unreleased jam, the tune is somewhat similar to “Death In Space” from Quintron’s latest record, Spellcaster II: Death In Space. As weird as everything about Quintron suggestions, the clip for “I Hear Voices” blends glitchy VHS images with some heavy guitar playing from Eyehategod’s Aaron Hill.
For the second year, his charity, Make the World Better Foundation, will host a benefit concert with a stacked lineup: Mac DeMarco, locals Marian Hill and The Suffers are on the bill.

On August 7, Mac DeMarco will release a project he’s calling the Another One mini-LP, and to tease its release three months ahead of time, the alt-scuzz musician has shared “The Way You’d Love Her.” The new cut is breezy and head-over-heels gushy.
Songs like “Salad Days,” “Let My Baby Stay” and “Cooking Up Something Good” sound timeless live and serve as reminders that for all the cheekiness, DeMarco’s actually extremely talented.
The Strokes returned to the stage last night at Atlanta’s Shaky Knees Festival, with special guest Mac DeMarco briefly joining the band on stage.
