Porches. - "Franklin the Flirt" & "Xanny Bar"

Aaron Maine of Porches. sat down with Out of Town Films to play a couple of cuts from his group's latest LP Slow Dance in the Cosmos, a sad-rock project with a lot of wit. These solo performances certainly loan each of the tracks a new emotional dynamic - first is a stripped-back, vulnerable rendition of "Franklin the Flirt" and second is a slightly twangier version of the dreary acoustic ballad "Xanny Bar." They can be viewed above and below, respectively. Happy (rather: Sad) listening!

Porches. - Slow Dance In the Cosmos

New York's Porches. delivers songs that blend folk and indie rock with a hefty dose of melancholy. If pained vocals and dreary chords aren't your thing, you might wanna steer clear. However, if they are, bon appétit!

Porches. - "Skinny Trees"

Pleasantville-based musical project Porches. pioneers the hitherto unexplored genre of "bootyclapping" with the new single from its upcoming debut full-length Slow Dance in the Cosmos. Really, with "Skinny Trees" the group (fronted by multi-instrumentalist Aaron Maine) has pulled together a taut, fuzzed-out, somewhat psychedelic trudge that manages to feel breezy thanks to its runtime of two minutes and some playful electronics. Enjoy!

Slow Dance in the Cosmos is due out August 27 on Exploding in Sound Records.
