This Old Dog reflects a change in songwriting mood for DeMarco. Swapping the east coast for the west coast, DeMarco moved from Queens, New York to Los Angeles to record the album. In a statement, DeMarco said:

“I demoed a full album, and as I was moving to the West Coast I thought I’d get to finishing it quick. But then I realized that moving to a new city, and starting a new life takes time. Usually I just write, record, and put it out; no problem. But this time, I wrote them and they sat. When that happens, you really get to know the songs. It was a different vibe.”

To support his new album, DeMarco has also announced a string of upcoming tour dates, including sets at music festivals like Okeechobee, Coachella, Treefort, Boston Calling and Hangout
