Powered by Audioscrobbler™Sea Scouts formed in Hobart in 1995, following Tim Evans' ending of his previous band Mouth. Firstly comprising of Tim (vocals, guitar), Zach von Bamburger (vocals, bass) and Monika Fikerle (drums), then Tim, Zach and a drum machine, this lineup independently released $100 000 Mammal in 1995. After von Bamburger departed for Melbourne, he was replaced by Alex Pope on vocals and bass, and Andy Hazel replaced their drum machine.

Sara Libero replaced Hazel for the first album, Pattern Recognition released on Choozy/Unstable Ape in 1996. Sea Scouts toured Eastern Australia supporting Pavement. Months later they again left Hobart to support Archers of Loaf, before relocating to Melbourne.

Once there, the band quickly gathered a reputation as a formidable live act, due to the intensity of their sound, Pope's riff-heavy, high-pitched bass melding with Evans' guitar through distortion, volume underpinned by Fikerle's martial drumming. Support slots with Mogwai and other international acts followed.

Sea Scouts' final release was Beacon of Hope released on Patsy/Unstable Ape in 1998.

Following their split in 2000 Evans moved on to front Bird Blobs, Pope returned to Hobart to front Vodka Party, and metal band The Ruins while Fikerle joined Love Of Diagrams and Baseball.
