Fact: The band McFly takes its name from Marty McFly, the iconic time-traveling teenager played by Michael J. Fox in the Back to the Future trilogy. Guitarist Tom Fletcher, a lifelong and passionate fan of the films, decided to name the band after the character who inspired him to pick up the guitar. McFly’s debut album, Room on the 3rd Floor, shot straight to number one on the UK Albums Chart, earning double platinum status and making McFly the youngest band ever to debut at number one—a record previously held by The Beatles.
