Sarah from Drug Store Romeos writes a love letter to Broadcast's Trish Keenan
Drug Store Romeos have been a fixture on the South London pub gig scene since long before any of them could legally buy drinks. The three piece from Hampshire met in Year 9 and cut their teeth at Brixton's Windmill and New Cross' 5 Bells (RIP) before supporting acts like HMLTD and The Orielles, and signing to Fiction records in 2019. Their wistful, electronic tinged indie calls to mind the dreamy slowcore of '90's bands like Stereolab and Broadcast—which is why it came as no surprise that when we asked Sarah, the band's singer to write a love letter, she chose Broadcast's Trish Keenan (who sadly passed away in 2011, aged 42)
