Aaron Maine and Porches visited SiriusXM recently and laid down a cover of The Strokes’ “Trying Your Luck” from Is This It. “Trying Your Luck” was never the brashest Strokes song, but in Maine’s hands it’s almost mellow.
As part of the interview, Maine explained the Strokes’ influence on his musical development. “I had never heard anything like that. They just were so special to me, so responsible for me getting into music as much as I did. I even think melodically Julian [Casablancas] is there in my subconscious,” Maine said.
Porches’ cover version airs on SiriusXMU this afternoon, but you can hear it below (h/t Stereogum).
