:The March Violets began in 1981 as one of Leeds' four famous drum machine bands, alongside the Sisters of Mercy, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Johns Three Johns] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Lorry_Yellow_Lorry Red Lorry Yellow Lorry]. The Violets favoured stark, primitive rhythm-box beats (as did the others), overlaid by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_March_Violets Loz Elliott]'s heavy bass throb and [[Tom Ashton]]'s inventively droning guitar (reminiscent of Magazine's John McGeoch). What set this quartet apart was the unique interplay (a la X or the Airplane) between the two complementary lead vocalists - big, bearded [[Simon Denbigh]] and enigmatic [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_March_Violets Rosie Garland]. His dark, commanding intonations intertwined with her eerie soprano wailing, imbuing the simplistic material with a strident, almost dissonant mystery.

:Before a schism with [[Andrew Eldritch]] led the Violets to start their own [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_March_Violets#History Rebirth] label, they were on the Sisters' label, [[Merciful Release]], starting with Religious as Hell, an establishing 7-inch. Natural History collects the band's early work, including the EP (save for the odd "Bon Bon Babies"), three follow-up 45s (the brilliant ''[[Grooving In Green]]'', "Crow Baby" and the insistent '84 dancefloor hit, "Snake Dance") and such rarities as the searing "Radiant Boys" (copping the riff from the Cure's "Object") and mesmerizing "Undertow." Though not a discrete album, Natural History flows magnificently.

As some of you may have heard, Si recently suffered a pretty serious haemorrhagic stroke and is currently in the Neurological Rehab unit in Hospital. He may be there for quite a while.

:By "Snake Dance," Garland had departed, replaced by the more upbeat [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_March_Violets#History Cleo Murray]. The lineup held for the subsequent "Walk into the Sun" but, as 1985 dawned, Denbigh was squeezed out of the band (he immediately formed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batfish_Boys Batfish Boys]). The first post-Denbigh 45 (the misnamed "Deep") laid bare the Violets' weakened condition. Electric Shades, the band's second compilation album, assembles the entire contents of the three later singles: "Snake Dance," "Walk into the Sun" and "Deep." With the dissipation of the band's intensity, Cleo's thin, pretty lead vocals simply don't carry the new material. The Violets continued to surrender to conventionality, obtaining a real drummer and crassly exploiting Cleo's beauty. After contributing two items (including an amazingly catchy rendition of the Rolling Stones' "Miss Amanda Jones") to 1987's Some Kind of Wonderful soundtrack, the March Violets faded away ...

The March Violets - Made Glorious album and band logo


A Leeds-based band, started in 1981 by (among others) Si Denbigh,
the long-time Nurse to The Sisters' Doktor Avalanche.

Their first two 7" singles Religious As Hell and Grooving In Green
were released through The Sisters of Mercy's label Merciful Release.

Nowadays, they describe themselves as:

  Original Post Punk Drum Machine Band From Leeds.

  Started at the Beginning, Imploded, Reborn for the 21st Century.

For additional information about The March Violets history,

please check The March Violets - Biography or the official links under

External Links at the bottom of this page.

Exceptional Update from The March Violets' Pledge Site

As some of you may have heard, Si recently suffered a pretty serious haemorrhagic stroke and is currently in the Neurological Rehab unit in Hospital. He may be there for quite a while.

If you want to keep tabs on Si’s progress he has clunky internet from hospital but is posting on Facebook, please say hi.

Recent Developments

The March Violets Today are:

Si Denbigh - vocals
Rosie Garland - vocals
Tom Ashton - guitars
Jo Violet - bass
Love Will Kill You - EP Cover


In November 2010, The March Violets decided to undertake the project of their first full album

along Pledge Music. Over 600 fans pledged their support and had The March Violets raise

196% of the money required. In the course of this pledge project, the band provided funds to

the charity organisations of Friends of the Earth, Cloth Cat, Leeds Music Charity, and

Macmillan Cancer Support.

In mid-2011, the limited edition EP Love Will Kill You was issued for sale at the gigs and

offered for free as a pre-release to people who had pledged toward the new album.

Check this link for an audio stream of "Road Of Bones", the first track of the EP.

A promo video of the song "Dandelion King!" from the 5-track EP was also produced including

the participation of pledgers and can be watched here on YT.

Made Glorious - Listening Party Invitation


Made Glorious - Download Cover

In between recording and production in 2012, The March Violets played

a short tour of the UK, some festival gigs at the WGT in Leipzig,

Germany and at the DV8 Fest in York as well as a support act with

the Psychedelic Furs in Leeds.

In April 2013 the new album Made Glorious was finally ready

Mortality Tour Announcement 2015

Purple News

The ‘Mortality Tour and Album’ is the new Pledge from the March Violets.
Throughout October pledgers get to experience a month of touring around the East Coast, with Backstage Action, Road Movie high jinx and other Purple nonsense. The Violets will be playing classic tracks live, then recording them in November in Chicago. With exclusive daily footage and a virtual Access Pass pledgers will be able to participate in the highs and lows of the entire Tour and Studio Saga. The involvement continues right up to Xmas, with an Advent Calendar with interesting Violet goodies behind each door, culminating in the Album download on Xmas day!

During this tour the March Violets are supported by William Faith on bass.
