Pepperoni Playboy is a music documentary by Pitchfork Magazine. It follows indie rock singer/songwriter Mac DeMarco throughout the creation of his second full-length studio album, Salad Days, and subsequent tour following its completion. The film was released on May 12, 2014. It was directed by Jon Leone, but uses footage from a variety of contributors, including Demarco himself. The film also features Mac's original touring band lineup: Peter Sagar (a.k.a. Homeshake), Pierce McGary, and Joe McMurray.

Synopsis
The film opens on Jizz Jazz Studios, Demarco's Brooklyn apartment where he wrote and recorded Salad Days in November of 2013. Mac shows off some of his vintage recording equipment, as well as the "shrine to himself" that he keeps in his recording space.

Reception
Pepperoni Playboy signaled the beginning of a new era of fame for Demarco, who within two years went from relative obscurity with his previous project Makeout Videotape to the top of the indie world with the help of major outlets like Pitchfork. The film itself encapsulates much of what makes Demarco so appealing to audiences.
