   About Tom Robinson
Tom Robinson hosts BBC Introducing: Fresh On The Net in the small hours of Sunday and Monday mornings on BBC 6 Music. Both shows feature two hours of new tunes from cyberspace - tracks by emerging artists that can also be heard on their own MySpace pages etc. The music is recommended each week by listeners, musicians - and colleagues from BBC Introducing shows across the UK. Anyone can suggest tracks for the show (including their own) using the online Recommend Music form.

His Friday night shows on BBC 6 Music feature live-to-air sessions by bands and solo artists direct from the 6 Music Hub plus Tom's pick of the new releases and vintage album tracks.

Tom previously worked as a songwriter and recording artist with Cafe Society (1973-6), Tom Robinson Band (1977-9), Sector 27 (1980-81), solo (1982-99) and with Faith Folk and Anarchy (2001-2). The Cafe Society album was produced by Ray Davies and Tom's subsequently worked with Chris Thomas, Todd Rundgren, Steve Lillywhite, Peter Gabriel, Elton John, Dan Hartman, Robin Millar, Jakko Jakszyk, Manu Katche, Chris Rea and TV Smith.

Follow my echo

A heartbeat sounds

A child lost

Mystery surrounds

Foot steps like delicate carvings in the sand

In the horizon you will be found

Hi Tom!!! I've just been listening to an old TRB live recording from Golders Green 1978, when you guys were in the middle of recording the first album...I really love the song "Ain't Gonna Take It" and it is still my favourate, it was the song that got me into your music many,many moons ago. I love what you do and have spent many a happy hour listening to the results!!!

Thanks for accepting the request.

We're looking to compile a top resource directory for unsigned bands and to also promote services, promoters, venues etc who are helping the unsigned industry and would love it if you would add yourself to our directory.

To submit your link just visit http://www.theunsigneddirectory.co.uk/suggest.php?action=addlink and fill in the details it takes less than a minute and is 100% free. You can even add a link to an RSS feed (could be your MySpace blog) which means that your latest news will be displayed against your listing.

Thanks
