About

Musician and broadcaster Tom Robinson presents an evening of songs and stories spanning five decades of adventures in the music industry. Tom's musical journey began in 1974 when his first band was discovered by Ray Davies, and included a BBC ban for being Glad To be Gay, rocking against racism alongside The Clash, headlining Glastonbury with Peter Gabriel, writing lyrics for Elton John, drug smuggling in East Germany, two nervous breakdowns and a period in tabloid hell after falling in love with a woman. Having made his peace with the BBC, he's presented programmes on all the corporation's national radio networks, and his broadcasting work has won two Sony Radio Academy awards. Expect intimate versions of classics such as War Baby, Glad To Be Gay and 2-4-6-8 Motorway alongside stories from behind the scenes and a sprinkling of fan favourites from his extensive back catalogue.

  • Tom Robinson plays The Band on the Wall

    by Irv on 03/10/2024Band On The Wall. - ManchesterRating: 5 out of 5

    Not seen Tom play for a few years and once again he delivers.The gig was basically about playing tracks from TRB 2 that haven't been played live for over 40 yesterday.With a selection from this album mixed in with the usual hits,2468 Motorway,Glad to be gay,Martin and Don't take know for an answer.No War Baby in the set list but enough to satisfy the mainly aged audience who remember going back to the late 70s when it all began.Spread over 2 sets with a 20 minute interval between as Tom said at 74 years of age he needs a rest in between.Power in the Darkness to the future
