Tom Robinson presents an evening of songs and stories from fifty years wandering the wilder shores of the Record Industry.
Classic hits such as War Baby, Up Against The Wall, and 2-4-6-8 Motorway rub shoulders with a Radio 1 ban for being Glad To be Gay, rocking against racism with The Clash, writing songs with Elton John, headlining Glasto with Peter Gabriel, drug smuggling in East Germany, two nervous breakdowns and a year in tabloid hell after falling in love with a woman.
Plus fan favourites from his vast back catalogue, spanning Café Society in 1975 to his acclaimed 2015 comeback album Only The Now.

Support comes from London-born singer-songwriter Gabrielle Sey. Richly rhythmic, lyrically lead and soulfully infused, she draws from her Ghanaian heritage to craft a distinctive sound true to her roots but which also embodies the influences of her Black British upbringing.
