Thomas Kirk, also known as Tom Kirk (24 September 1977), is the creative/media manager of the British band Muse.

Muse
Tom is the media manager of Muse, as stated above. He creates and controls all the visuals during live performances and runs the official website. He also assembles and creates the bands (live) DVD's and making of DVD's. Apart from the fact that he works for Muse as their media manager, he is also one of their best friends and he has known them since they were young. He is often seen as the fourth member of the band, but he sees Morgan as the closest thing to a fourth member, since he actually performs with them on stage.

Tom features in the recording of some Muse songs, including the intro of Absolution and the finger-clicking in Time is Running Out. In an online live interview he stated that his favourite Muse music videos are Dead Star, Butterflies and Hurricanes and Stockholm Syndrome ,of which there are actually two versions. His favourite Muse song is Citizen Erased

In 2010, Tom Kirk went to the American Music Awards with Matthew Bellamy and Dominic Howard, instead of Christopher Wolstenholme, who was at home because he and his wife had just had their fifth baby. He was then mistaken for Chris when he in fact, wasn't. This led to great annoyance amongst the fans. After they won the award and Matthew and Dominic had thanked the fans and people involved, he went up to the microphone and thanked Charles Darwin.

Personal life
Tom was born in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, in the UK. He has a brother and a sister, but his sister, Helen Kirk, passed away after an accident on Boxing Day in Dorset. The bands fourth studio album, Black Holes and Revelations is dedicated to her memory. Alex Kirk, his brother, took part in Movember, as did Chris. Not much is known about his current whereabouts or family situation, he tries to keep his personal life personal.
