Biografija [uredi - уреди] 1964. godine, tri prijatelja - Rodžer Voters (Roger Waters) (gitarista), Ričard Rajt (Richard Wright) (klavijaturista) i Nik Mejson (Nick Mason) (bubnjar) - su osnovali bend koji se zvao Sigma 6. Kako nije uspeo da se proslavi, bend menja ime u TSets. Kasnije, sredinom 1965. godine nastaje “The Abdads” sa novim članovima Klajvom Metkalfom (Clive Metcalf) (bas gitara), Kejt Noubls (Keith Nobles) i Džuliet Gejl (Juliette Gale) (prateći vokali). Bend ponovo menja ime u The Screaming Abdads i The Architectural Abdabs. 1966. bend ponovo uzima ime Sigma 6, Rodžer Voters se prebacuje na sviranje bas gitare, priključuju im se gitaristi Bob Klous (Bob Close) i Sid Baret (Syd Barret). Tada menjaju ime u Pink Floyd, koje je spoj imena dvojice poznatih bluzera, Pinka Andersona i Flojda Kansila (Floyd Council). Bend je zamalo dobio ime Anderson Council. Kasnije te godine Bob Klous napušta grupu. Pink Flojd konačno dobija šansu da snimi svoj prvi singl - Arnold Layne, pesmu o ludom transvestitu koji krade žensku odeću. Prvi album im je The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. Tokom turneje u SAD, Sid Baret se razboleo zbog upotrebe LSD-a. Njegova zavisnost doprinela je
imaginarnom pisanju pesama, ali u vreme albuma A Saucerful Of Secrets, njegova zavisnost se otrgla kontroli. 1967. bend traži zamenu za Sida Bareta i tom prilikom regrutuje Dejvida Gilmora (David Gilmour). 1968. čuveni francuski režiser hipi filmova Barbet Šroder (Barbet Schroder) angažuje Pink Flojd za muziku za svoj film, “More”. 1969. Pink Flojd izdaje dupli album, Ummagumma. 1970. godine izdaju album Atom Heart Mother. 1971. godine izdaju kompilaciju svojih objavljenih i neobjavljenih radova - Relics. U isto vreme bend je radio na svom novom albumu Meddle sa čuvenom 23-minutnom pesmom Echoes. 1972. godine bend snima muziku za još jedan film La Vallee, a taj album je poznat kao Obscured By Clouds. Iste godine nastaje čuveni dokumentarni film snimljen u Pompeji. Film je dobio ime Live At Pompeii. Tokom snimanja Obscured By Clouds, napisan je 45-minutni opus pesama koje sviraju uživo. Opus se zvao Eclipse. Originalno ime za opus je trebalo da bude Dark Side Of The Moon, ali su Medicine Head pre njih izdali album pod tim imenom. Međutim, kada su čuli da su Medicine Head odustali od tog naziva, nadenuli su ga svom opusu i napisali su završnu pesmu kojoj su dali naziv Eclipse.
1973. godine, Dark Side Of The Moon izdaju kao album, i to je drugi po redu najprodavaniji rok album u istoriji. mini|The Dark Side Of The Moon Nastavljajući svoj uspeh sa prethodnim albumom, Pink Flojd stvara Wish You Were Here. Album je posvećen originalnom tekstopiscu i gitaristi - Sidu Baretu. Na tom albumu su odsvirali jedan od najpoznatijih instrumentala - Shine On You Crazy Diamond koji je morao biti podeljen na dva dela jer nije mogao da stane na jednu stranu ploče. Posle uspeha sa Wish You Were Here, Pink Flojd odlazi na godišnji odmor kako bi stvorio nova dela. Album je baziran na aristokratskom i komunističkom stilu života u svetu. Svaki tip osobe je baziran na nekoj od životinja. Album je nazvan Animals. 1979. izdat je album The Wall. 1984. bend se raspada i svako radi svoje solo projekte. 1986. Nik Mejson i Dejvid Gilmor se udružuju pod imenom Pink Flojd i snimaju album A Momentary Lapse Of Reason. Iste godine se vraća i Ričard Rajt. 1994. Snimaju album The Division Bell.
