Post Rome are a band that have known each other for a number of years. The trio met at primary school and went on to realise their shared passion for music later in life. Now all in their early twenties, Post Rome have racked up thousands of streams on Spotify and hope that this latest release will see them to even more success.
Commenting on the meaning behind the track, drummer Jamie martin has said: “This is a song that does what is says on the tin. ‘The idea of having a boyfriend’ explores the feelings of people who simply just like having a partner rather than liking the person themselves.”
Despite 2020 seeing the temporary collapse of the live music scene, Post Rome are moving forward with optimism with plans for 2021 shows across Teesside, Sunderland and more corners of the North East.
