The Seekers discography
Studio albums12
Live albums7
Compilation albums35

The Seekers were an Australian folk music group formed in 1962 consisting of Athol Guy, Keith Potger, Bruce Woodley and Judith Durham.

The quartet were first active from 1962 to 1968 when Durham left to pursue a solo career. The group re-formed in 1975 and recruited Louisa Wisseling to provide vocals, but disbanded again in 1978. In 1988, the group re-formed with Julie Anthony and then (from 1990–91) Karen Knowles providing vocals. In 1993, Durham reunited with original members Guy, Potger and Woodley, and they have toured on and off since then.

Below is an extensive discography of their hits across the world, where they scored numerous successes in countries such as Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom and the United States.
