Tom Ashton on stage with The March Violets in November 2007

Guitarist with The March Violets from 1981 to 1986, Tom Ashton played guitar for the Sisters circa 1981 for a few live dates.
Rumour has it that Eldritch asked Tom to join The Sisters at this point. He didn't.

After the Violets' split Tom remained in the music industry, working on soundtracks for film and television,
and playing guitar in a band called Hard Rain and then with Clan Of Xymox.

Tom is now married to an American girl called Rachel and moved to Amercia (Atlanta, Georgia to be more precise)
where they built their own house. Tom and Rachel live there with their children: a little girl called Charlotte and a
little boy called Lukas. Tom works as a freelance musician and still writes and records music. His work can be found

Tom Ashton has also joined the 2007 re-united March Violets, who have recently produced the 5-track EP Love Will Kill You

as a pre-release to their their first full album Made Glorious published with PledgeMusic in April 2013.
