Mac DeMarco and Shamir interview each other while playing Jenga

Mac DeMarco and Shamir recently met up for an interview and a game of Jenga - as you do.

The chat on a Brooklyn rooftop is an unfiltered discussion between the two, whose relaxed stream of consciousness conversation is surrounded by sun, beer and cigarettes. The clips feature the pair playing Jenga with plenty of popcorn while they discuss smoking issues, body switching, pet peeves and their first meeting at SXSW.

Mac DeMarco will release his new “mini-LP” ‘Another One’ via Captured Tracks in August - this September he plays a DIY Presents show in Birmingham. Shamir’s debut album ‘Ratchet’ is out now on XL Recordings.
