Band Member - The Machine


According to Welch, "The name Florence and the Machine started off as a private joke that got out of hand. I made music with my friend, who we called Isabella Machine to which I was Florence Robot. When I was about an hour away from my first gig, I still didn't have a name, so I thought "Okay, I'll be Florence Robot is a Machine", before realizing that name was so long it'd drive me mad". In 2006 Welch's performances in small London venues under the name "Florence Robot is a Machine" began to attract notice.
The Machine is Florence's backing band which has included Devonte Hynes (Lightspeed Champion and Test Icicles). The current line-up consists of Robert Ackroyd (guitar), Christopher Lloyd Hayden (drums), Isabella Summers ('Isabella Machine') (keyboards), Mark Saunders (bass) and Tom Monger (harp).
