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

VideostheneedledropComment

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!
