More than a record store. Since 1976.

The year 2026 marks five decades of Rough Trade. From a small shop on West London's Kensington Park Road to a global community of music heads, it’s been half a century of backing counterculture, celebrating the physical format and championing creativity. We exist to serve the die-hards and the curious alike - fiercely independent, always chasing what’s next.

This is 50.
