La historia de McFly comienza en Londres, Reino Unido, a principios de la década de 2000. Tom Fletcher, el líder y principal compositor del grupo, inició su carrera en el mundo de la música como parte de la boyband Busted. Tras un fallido intento de audicionar nuevamente para Busted, Fletcher decidió explorar otros caminos. Fue entonces cuando conoció a Danny Jones en unas audiciones para un nuevo proyecto musical. Pronto quedó claro que ambos compartían intereses musicales y una visión similar, por lo que decidieron formar una banda.
Tom y Danny sumaron a Dougie Poynter y Harry Judd para completar la formación. Dougie, de origen neerlandés, fue el tercer miembro en unirse, trayendo consigo un estilo distintivo en el bajo y voces secundarias. Harry, por su parte, aportó la energía y precisión que el grupo necesitaba en la batería. De esta manera, en 2003, McFly emergió como una banda completa.
En 2004, el grupo lanzó su primer sencillo, "5 Colours in Her Hair", que rápidamente alcanzó el número uno en las listas del Reino Unido. Con un sonido fresco que combinaba pop punk y rock, McFly atrajo la atención de jóvenes fanáticos y críticos por igual. Ese mismo año, lanzaron su primer álbum "Room on the 3rd Floor", el cual también dominó las listas.
