“Home”: Mac DeMarco’s nostalgic ode to what’s gone

Canadian singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Mac DeMarco has released his new single “Home,” a reflective yet haunting track that pays tribute to the disconnection from a place once considered home.

The single offers a taste of what’s to come on his upcoming album Guitar, set for release on August 22nd.

“Home” starts immediately with vocals—as if DeMarco was prepped and ready to get started on this track—with the opening verse: “These days, I'd much rather be on my own / No more walking those streets, that I once called my home / Because down every lane, there are faces and names / That have memories attached, that I'd sooner let go.”

The repetitive melody carries a quiet sadness, melting into the steady drumbeat and wallowing guitar—accentuating the attachment to a place that no longer feels like home, shaped by missed connections and the resignation that “home” will always feel a bit off and worn out.

The tone of DeMarco’s vocals and the overall vibe of the track evoke a ’70s folk spirit, carrying a quiet, prophetic energy reminiscent of Simon & Garfunkel.

It’s a relatable track for anyone who’s grown up and looked back on the place they once lived—haunted by the ghosts of people they no longer speak to and the stores and restaurants that no longer exist. 

It’s a gentle but haunting reminder that everything is fleeting, and to hold on to the things that make you feel whole.
