“I can’t tell what he’s saying but it makes me so happy and it sounds good.” This seems like both the gift and the curse of Mikal Cronin. The 27-year old has really…
White Fence’s latest album is Cyclops Reap which is out on Castle Face and can be streamed via Rdio or Spotify.
Cronin’s second album is full of spangly little garage-pop jams, but “Shout It Out” is its most impeccably buzzy anthem, without a second wasted.
Beginning this week, they’ll release at least one free digital single per week at their website, with 15 singles scheduled. Participants include… Mac DeMarco,…
… Fuzz’s Sabbath-esque, stringy haired, garage rock certainly fit the bill.
Thee Oh Sees took the stage last to finish up the show, playing a mix of old songs and new ones off their absolutely stellar recent album Floating Coffin.
….to make the songs sound compelling even after you’ve worn the needle n your record player down to a nub. We’re hooked on the sweets Cronin’s serving up,…
If there’s anyone that can make solid power pop music right now, it’s Mikal Cronin. Each one of his songs contains a catchy beat that will keep you dancing from start to finish.
Cronin has done his songwriting homework, yet what he produces sounds amazingly fresh, and not at all studied.
Somehow, it’s makes a ton of sense that this is the way Mac DeMarco interprets the lyrics of Bachman-Turner Overdrive’s classic number “Takin’ Care Of Business”:
For his second solo album, “MCII,” Mikal Cronin scrubbed some of the grime off his garage pop. Or rather, he decided not to add it in the first place.

“…There was euphoria, inconsistency, great moments of music all around. Mac and his band could play anything…”
Undeterred, the Canadian gave us two songs, cigarette stuck in the neck of the guitar
The quasi-catchy, slightly askew songs collected on Mikal Cronin’s 2011 solo debut elbowed their way through fogs of fuzz.
In their latest, charismatic misfit Mac DeMarco shows off some unabashedly goofy dance moves while singing “Still Together,” a cut from his most recent full-length, 2.
Mac DeMarco, the Canadian indie rock star once known as Makeout Videotape, provides the latest edition of our exclusive Rdio Session series recorded during SXSW.
…Yours Truly filmed Mac DeMarco and his band playing a session at Austin’s Driskill Hotel. Below, watch him perform the excellent 2 closing track “Still Together”,…
Mac Demarco is a human gem. Sparkling with a delicate grunge from head to toe and between those gaped front teeth, Mac lights up a room with endless oddities.
As mentioned, Mac DeMarco and White Fence will be playing the Panache Northside showcase at Brooklyn Bowl on June 13.

It’s as profoundly emotional as it is carefully crafted—not only did Cronin record all the basic instrumental tracks himself, but he also wrings moments of stark sincerity from the music.
In July we get the indie rock stuff (curated by MoMA’s PopRally), with shows from Ex Cops on 7/4, TEEN on 7/11, Mikal Cronin on 7/18, and Ducktails on 7/25.
I’ve waited way, way too long to catch Mac Demarco live and now, in the wake of this year’s Primavera Sound, I can finally say I have… twice.
…it appears as though Mikal Cronin is living the dream. In addition to his ongoing gig as tour bassist in the Ty Segall Band, the Los Angeles-born musician recently…
“…Wandering down to the pebble beach as the afternoon sun began to set, he cut two tracks for us, the first of which you can watch above, album standout ‘Cooking Up Something Good’…”
