Mac DeMarco Closes Summer’s Door @ Red Rocks

Mac DeMarco hosted a chilly evening at Red Rocks last Sunday night, bringing on the crisp fall air and celebrating the sunset of Summer as only he and his mellow mates can do. He started the night sporting a hoodie and baseball cap and – after a little more than an hour of sweet psychedelic tunes from across his pop career – closed out the night shirtless, dancing away the chill in the air during a cover of Metallica’s “Sandman” with ease.

DeMarco and his band continued a tradition of making live shows a family affair, inviting members from both opening bands – Thundercat and Snail Mail’s Lindsey Jordan – to play with the band.
through the set, they played fan faves like “Ode to Viceroy,” “Salad Days,” and “Another One,” treating the crowd with a beautiful, dreamy night. Snail Mail and Thundercat opened with equally powerful sets, and the night ended as Fall really started to settle.
