Porches share "Be Apart" video from new LP

by Bill Pearis

Porches

Porches‘ first album for Domino Records, Pool, is out February 5 and they’ve just released a video for single “Be Apart.” The stylish clip was directed by Daniel Brereton (Connan Mockasin, Django Django, Kindness, Metronomy) and shot outside London while on a UK tour. Says main man Aaron Maine:

‘Be Apart’ is sort of about moving to New York City and wanting to belong. It’s about nightlife, about being taken away, losing control, longing for acceptance, and letting go. I imagine the music video portraying some sort of cult or family living in a mansion. The cult/mansion represent both what you might long to be a part of and also the sentiment of longing to be elsewhere, a part of what is outside.

Watch it, and the video for “Hour,” below.

As mentioned, Porches will be on tour this spring with Alex G and Your Friend, including NYC shows at Music Hall of Williamsburg on April 13 and Bowery Ballroom on April 15. Tickets are still available.
