History
editFeaturing contributions from Mark Goetz, Greg Napier, and Brad Loughead, the project started in 2012. At the time, Peter Sagar was playing guitar with Mac DeMarco, whom Sagar was friends with since they were teenagers.[2] Fixture Records released his debut cassette, The Homeshake Tape, in January 2013 and released a second, titled Dynamic Meditation in October 2013. In early 2014, he left Mac DeMarco's live band to focus on the Homeshake project.[3] Shortly afterwards, Peter Sagar released his debut full-length album, In the Shower (2014).
His second album, Midnight Snack was released in 2015.[1] In 2016, Homeshake partnered with fellow Canadian indie musician Alex Calder to release a charity split single. The release featured Calder's "Stuck Inside" on one side and Homeshake's "Nankhatai" on the other, with all proceeds benefiting the International Refugee Assistance Project.[4] His third album under the project, Fresh Air was released in 2017.[5][6] His fourth album, Helium was released in 2019.
