Trish Keenan, singer for the British electronic pop duo Broadcast, has died from complications of pneumonia. As reported yesterday, Keenan had been hospitalized and was said to be suffering from a strain of the H1N1 flu.
Though they were a fairly obscure act, Broadcast were widely admired in indie and electronic music circles. The band, which began releasing singles in 1995, was active up through 2009 when they issued a collaboration with the Focus Group titled "Broadcast and the Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults of the Radio Age."
