Tom Robinson

Tom Robinson enjoyed brief notoriety in late 70s Britain - a time of punk rock, political unrest and economic gloom - as a bandleader and activist. 

The Tom Robinson Band (TRB) became known for the hit single 2-4-6-8 Motorway, their 
vocal support of Rock Against Racism and for the anthem Sing If You're Glad To Be 
Gay, which reached the Top Twenty despite a ban by BBC Radio 1. 

Other hits included Don't Take No For An Answer, Up Against The Wall and Too Good 
To Be True while TRB's debut album Power In The Darkness went gold in the UK & Japan. 
As a solo artist Tom had further success in 1983 with War Baby and Atmospherics: Listen 
To The Radio, and co-wrote songs with Peter Gabriel, Elton John, Dan Hartman and Manu Katché.

As a radio presenter, Tom has hosted programmes on all eight of the BBC‘s national radio stations over the last 30 years, and won two Gold Sony Academy Radio Awards.
