Porches
"How many more of these sad songs can one boy write"
Porches is the solo alias of synth-centric New York–based indie singer/songwriter Aaron Maine.
The project emerged in the early 2010s with a '90s alt-rock-inspired sound that primarily centered on guitars and drums, but also introduced spacey electronics and Maine's distinctly yearning vocals. The debut album, Slow Dance in the Cosmos, came out in 2013, but the main breakthrough came with the release of the sophomore album Pool. The album is more synth-oriented than its predecessor and received largely positive reviews from contemporary music critics. Jeremy Gordon of Pitchfork praised the album, stating, "Pool is an introspective record, tailor-made for lonesome nights."
On October 11, 2017, Porches released the single Country. In 2018, they followed up with their third album, The House. Their fourth album, Ricky Music, was released in 2020 and was met with generally favorable reviews from critics. In 2021, Porches released All Day Gentle Hold !.
Maine has also released music under the names Aaron Maine, Ronald Paris, and Ronnie Mystery. He has performed with bands such as Aaron Maine and the Reilly Brothers, Space Ghost Cowboys, and Sex God, under the Shark Attack Records label. He also played drums with Frankie Cosmos – the project of Greta Klein, who was his partner at the time.
