Page "The Seekers" Paragraph 4

Durham and Guy had met when they both worked in an advertising agency – initially Durham only sang periodically with the Seekers, when not performing at jazz clubs.

She was replaced in the jazz ensemble by Margret RoadKnight.

The Seekers performed folk-influenced pop music and soon gathered a strong following in Melbourne.

Durham's connections with W & G Records led to the group signing with the label.

Their debut album, Introducing The Seekers, was released in 1963.

Their debut single was the bush ballad, " Waltzing Matilda ", which appeared in November and reached the Melbourne top 40 singles chart.

When being photographed for the album's cover, Potger was replaced by Ray – his day job with the Australian Broadcasting Commission ( ABC ) as a radio producer barred him from involvement in a commercial enterprise.
