The fresh meat you're now feasting on, This Old Dog, makes for his fifth in just over half a decade - bringing the total to 3 LPs and 2 EPs. According to the DMV, Mac is 26. But in working-dog years, he could easily qualify for social security. To stay gold, out all he needed was some new tricks.

"That thing helped a ton, especially for demoing, " he says. t, maybe four or five songs. I usually demo on a drum machine and then record real drums, but I liked that machine so much I kept it on the album.
