Echo & the Bunnymen are an English post-punk group formed in Liverpool in 1978. The original line-up consisted of Ian McCulloch, Will Sergeant and Les Pattinson, supplemented by a drum machine assumed by many to be "Echo", though the band denies this. McCulloch quit the band in 1988, and De Freitas was killed in a motorcycle accident one year later. Pattinson and Sergeant recruited vocalist Noel Burke and drummer Damon Reece. Keyboardist Jake Brockman (a touring member of the band for several years previously, and a contributor to the 1987 album) was promoted to full member, and the five-piece recorded Reverberation in 1990. This did not generate much excitement among fans or critics, and the group was abandoned shortly afterwards. In 1994 McCulloch and Sergeant began working together again under the name Electrafixion; in 1997 Pattinson rejoined the duo, meaning the three surviving members of the original Bunnymen line-up were now working together again. Rather than continue as Electrafixion, the trio resurrected the Echo & the Bunnymen name and released the album Evergreen (1997), which reached the UK top 10. The group's current touring incarnation comprises McCulloch and Sergeant along with Simon Finley (drums), Stephen Brennan (bass), Gordy Goudie (guitar), and Paul Fleming (keyboards). PLEASE
