The Seekers are a group of Australian folk-influenced popular musicians which was formed in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, in 1963. They were the first Australian popular music group to achieve significant chart and sales success in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Their 1960s hits have included: I'll Never Find Another You, A World of Our Own, Someday One Day, and The Carnival is Over (which The Seekers have sung at various closing ceremonies in Australia, including Expo '88 & the Paralympics), and also Georgy Girl (featured in the film of the same name). I Am Australian is one of the group's more recent hits.

The Seekers were formed by Athol Guy, double bass, and guitarists Keith Potger and Bruce Woodley, who all attended Melbourne High School. Later, they met Judith Durham who had begun her career as a jazz singer in the trad jazz idiom. Just prior to joining The Seekers, she was lead vocalist in the Melbourne group Frank Traynor's Jazz Preachers (she was replaced by Margret RoadKnight). The Seekers soon gathered a strong following in Melbourne and were signed to the W&G Records by the label's A&R manager Ron Tudor, who later founded the influential Australian label Fable Records.
