Porches teams up with Dev Hynes and Bryndon Cook on new single

13 October 2017, 18:05 | Written by Laurence Day

Porches is back with "Country", a new single and video featuring backing vocals from Dev Hynes (Blood Orange) and Bryndon Cook (Starchild and The New Romantic).

"Country" is the first new material from Porches, aka Aaron Maine, since the release of last year's Water EP and Pool album.

To go with the new song and video, Maine has written a note and poem which you can read below:

i am happy to share this new song with you
it’s the last song i wrote for my new album
in the context of the record it acts as a departure as well as an arrival
here is a poem i wrote about what the song means

mini reckoning
Like flopping onto bed after first kiss high school
I left her apartment and made sure to keep the sleep on me all the way home
Rolled down the window across the bridge
And filled up my lungs
She told me about this saying about breaking the water to get somewhere
and i imagined what it would be like to swim together
I felt soft and dumb like a country song

Maine co-directed the video with Nick Harwood. It was shot in upstate New York.

"Country" is out now via Domino.
