Last year, Billy Jones, the co-founder and owner of the Brooklyn venue Baby's All Right, passed away from glioblastoma at the age of 45. Jones booked and promoted live music in New York for many years, before and after the establishment of Baby's, and he did a lot to boost the city's indie rock scene. Porches leader Aaron Maine is one of the many people who was close to Jones, and he shared a new tribute song called "Angel" on Sunday, exactly one year after Jones' passing.
On "Angel," Aaron Maine sings softly over delicate piano notes before a choir of multi-tracked voices sweeps him upward: "I guess you're an angel, but you always have been/ And the only difference is that now you're in heaven/ Screaming songs with the band again/ Probably already made some friends." Listen below.
Recently, Porches released the new mixtape MASK, and Aaron Maine co-wrote and co-produced the Kim Petras single "Jeep."
