# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Wokingham Music Club - Tom Robinson with Adam Phillips - Then & Now Tour
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Fresh from his appearance at the Wokingham Festival we present Tom Robinson on Thursday 29th January!

Expect an evening of tall tales and top tunes from half a century working on the wilder fringes of the Music Industry - including encounters with Alexis Korner, Ray Davies, Elton John, Peter Gabriel, Todd Rundgren, Eddy Grant and Brian Eno - alongside classics such as War Baby, Glad to Be Gay, and 2-4-6-8 Motorway. Plus unexpected back catalogue gems from Café Society (1975) to Only The Now (2015) in this brand new two man show with virtuoso guitarist Adam Phillips.

Tom Robinson's first record release was in 1975 as one-third of Café Society: an acoustic harmony trio produced by Ray Davies of The Kinks who had discovered them playing at The Troubadour coffee house in London's Earls Court. After seeing The Sex Pistols at The 100 Club, Tom realised "the Next Big Thing probably wasn't going to be an acoustic harmony trio" and formed a new group of his own with guitarist Danny Kustow. The Tom Robinson Band were early supporters of Rock Against Racism and went on to enjoy Top Five success with 2-4-6-8 Motorway and mild notoriety a few months later with their LGBT anthem Glad To Be Gay. Their album Power In The Darkness entered the charts at No.4.

In the subsequent 50 years Tom's been mentored by Alexis Korner and Martin Carthy, written songs with Elton John and Peter Gabriel, toured with The Police, Red Wedge and The Undertones, and Rocked Against Racism alongside The Clash, Steel Pulse and X-Ray Spex. He's also been banned by Radio One, bankrupt and exiled in East Berlin, and hounded by the tabloid press for being in love with a woman.

More recently he's given 10,000+ artists their first nationwide airplay on his BBC Introducing shows and served for ten years on the Ivor Novello Awards committee.

At age 75 Tom still enjoys a reputation among his punk contemporaries - as well as the world of acoustic/roots music - both as a master songsmith and a funny, ferocious live performer.

For this event we are returning to All Saints Church which proved to be a great venue for last month's Chris Difford gig! Our bar will be open from 6:30pm.
