List of Nine Inch Nails band members
Nine Inch Nails is an American industrial rock band founded in 1988 by Trent Reznor in Cleveland, Ohio. The band's live performances contrast with its in-studio counterpart; although Reznor is in complete creative control of Nine Inch Nails in-studio, he typically assembles groups of backing musicians to interpret songs for live performances.[3][4] In 2009, Reznor announced that Nine Inch Nails was no longer touring, but that he would continue to create music under the name. In 2013, he announced that Nine Inch Nails would return to the stage and revealed tour dates for the Twenty Thirteen Tour.

The band's lineup has changed consistently throughout the band's history, with Reznor remaining the only constant. Notable musicians who have contributed to live performances include Chris Vrenna, Richard Patrick, Jeff Ward, James Woolley, Danny Lohner, Robin Finck, Charlie Clouser, Jerome Dillon, Alessandro Cortini, Josh Freese, and Ilan Rubin. In 2016, frequent Reznor collaborator and multi-instrumentalist Atticus Ross was announced as an official member of Nine Inch Nails, becoming the only person other than Reznor to have held an official position in the band.[5] The configuration of Nine Inch Nails as a live band has evolved consistently. Early incarnations of the band featured three people playing guitar, drums, keyboards, and samplers.[6] Later incarnations replaced the keyboards and samplers with an additional guitarist, and further incarnations added a bassist.[6] The live component later settled on a five-piece band between the Self Destruct Tour in 1994 and Lights in the Sky tour in 2008.[7] In September 2007, Reznor expressed his interest in moving away from the "rock band configuration" to explore "other ways [to] present the material in concert",[8] and by 2009 the live band was once again pared down to four positions.
Between major tours, live band members have on occasion contributed instrumental performances to official Nine Inch Nails releases, though creative control and direction has always been the responsibility of Reznor. Nine Inch Nails has released one album and four videos featuring the live band: Closure (1997), a double-VHS set featuring live performances from the Self Destruct Tour; And All That Could Have Been (2002), released in CD and double-DVD formats featuring performances from the Fragility Tour; Beside You in Time (2007), released on Blu-Ray and DVD and featuring performances from the Live: With Teeth Tour; and Another Version of the Truth (2009), an officially sanctioned fan-made release in HD and triple-DVD sets featuring performances from the Lights in the Sky Tour.

Between tours, Finck performed briefly with Cirque du Soleil and then with Guns N' Roses. Following a four-year touring hiatus, the Nine Inch Nails live-band reformed in 1999 for the Fragility tour, again featuring Finck contributing on guitar. At the conclusion of the Fragility tour in 2000, Finck returned to Guns N' Roses, and was replaced by Aaron North for Live: With Teeth in 2005. There are various reports that suggest there was animosity between Finck and Reznor during the Fragility tours, which may have led to Finck declining the invitation to the following tours. In 2008, Finck rejoined Nine Inch Nails, playing on The Slip and joining the live band for the Lights in the Sky tour and the following Wave Goodbye tour.[10] Finck has contributed on the most tours of all the past live members, playing for the Self-Destruct, Fragility, Lights in the Sky, Wave Goodbye, Twenty-Thirteen, I Can’t Seem to Wake Up, and Cold and Black and Infinite tours.[11]

- Prior to the Live: With Teeth tour in 2005, Reznor held open auditions to replace live-band members who had left the group during the five years between tours. Alessandro Cortini reportedly fit in immediately,[12] and was part of the live-band for 4 years.[13] Between tours, Cortini contributed to some of the Nine Inch Nails studio-material, gaining co-writing credits on Ghosts I–IV (2008) and a performance credit on The Slip (2008). At the conclusion of the Lights in the Sky Over North/South America tour in late 2008 Cortini announced his departure from the band to pursue other music projects.[14] No replacement was hired for him, and the 2009 incarnation of the live band was a 4-piece group, with the role of keyboard player shared between the 4 band members. Cortini returned to the live band for its 2013 and 2014 tours. During the I Can’t Seem to Wake Up/Cold and Black and Infinite tours, Cortini began to transition to playing more guitar and bass, due to the addition of Atticus Ross on keyboards and synthesizers.

After leaving the band, Reznor and Musarra — along with Chris Vrenna — were members of the original three-piece band formed in 1988 to support Skinny Puppy on tour.[19] Nine Inch Nails were reportedly poorly received, however, and were asked to leave the tour after 10 dates.[6] A brief video from this performance would be released as bonus footage on 1997's Closure. For subsequent live performances and tours, original keyboardist Vrenna replaced Musarra on drums.

After touring briefly in support of Guns N' Roses, Patrick left the live-band to form Filter; however, he was thanked as an "influence" in the liner notes for 1992's Broken, and was seen in archival footage on 1997's Closure. Patrick was briefly reunited with Nine Inch Nails in 1996 during the Nights of Nothing showcase tour, as he contributed guitar to a performance of "Head Like a Hole" during Nine Inch Nails' set on the last of three dates.[20]

However, during the band's first arena date, Dillon was forced to stop midway through a show and was subsequently hospitalized.[28] His condition was later diagnosed as a non-life threatening cardiac disorder, a consequence of his thyroid medication.

In theory, Nine Inch Nails shouldn't be a great live band. Reznor's music sometimes consists of non-organic instruments thrown straight onto a computer, at times being twisted to the point of not even sounding like the original source.
