Erin Burke left the group in 2011 to pursue a career in acting.
Later that month they changed their name to just Steam Powered Giraffe). For their first performance in public they called themselves Steam Powered Giraffe Presents: Peoplebots. Trained in pantomime by Seaport Village mime Jerry "Kazoo" Hager, and with collective backgrounds in clown, theater, music, and visual design, Jonathan Sprague, Erin Burke (a fellow pantomime artist) and the Bennett twins-Isabella and David-started street busking as quirky robotic characters in January 2008 at Balboa Park, California. Afterwards, they became members of a local San Diego pantomime group called Troupe SD. The members of Steam Powered Giraffe met while taking Theatre Arts at Grossmont College. To date, they have released five studio albums, two live albums, several live concert films, provided the soundtrack for the 2015 video game SteamWorld Heist, and released an official single for the 2016 video game Battleborn. Although the band underwent several line-up changes, it always focuses primarily on three robot characters (played by the Bennett siblings and a third performer, although the original line-up featured four robots), with several "humans" assisting and performing comedy, music and dancing on stage, and several smaller robots being performed via puppetry or voice acting. Steam Powered Giraffe has its own fictional mythology, with the band members portraying characters both on stage and on record its fictional universe has been explored via several comic books mainly written and drawn by Isabella Bennett. Created and led by identical twins David Michael Bennett and Isabella "Bunny" Bennett, the act combines music and improvisational comedy on-stage, although their studio works focus almost solely on music.
