Formed in 1996, The Seahorses leaned more towards guitar-driven music than the dancehall rock of Stone Roses.[1] The name of the band is an anagram of “He hates Roses,” though it is unknown if this was intentional. For the band, Squire picked three unknowns. First to join was the bassist Stuart Fletcher who Squire saw standing in for a friend in a York pub band called The Blueflies, next was the lead vocalist Chris Helme (who a friend of Squire’s had spotted busking outside Woolworths, also in York), with drummer Andy Watts, who also provided backing vocals, being the last to join.
Their one and only album, Do it Yourself, was produced by Tony Visconti, for Geffen Records in June 1997, and received varied reviews. One of the songs on the album, “Love Me and Leave Me”, was co-written with Liam Gallagher of Oasis, with whom the Seahorses toured in 1997.
Shortly before the release of the single “Love Me And Leave Me”, it was announced that drummer Andy Watts was leaving the group to spend more time with his family. It was later brought to light in an online interview with Watts that he was asked to leave by the band’s lawyers, on behalf of the band, because they didn’t approve of the drummer’s excessive behaviour on tour, and felt he didn’t fit in with the desired image for the band. Watts was eventually replaced by Mark Heaney and played several secret gigs showcasing new material destined for a second album. However, the group disbanded in 1999 during recording sessions. It is believed Helme showed more interest in pursuing a solo career off the back of his involvement with Squire than working on the 2nd album, and John Squire walked out of the sessions.

They were fantastic. But only 1 official album which really hit the spot. Was somewhat of a mystery to me as they were so good.

00s been bad for indie? if you were more involved with the music scene in the 90s then you'd think so but the 00s has been my era and i've loved it :) so many great gigs over the years. ryan jarman at the NME awards jumping on the table has been the equivalent to jarvis at the brits in many ways

The 90's was packed full of bands like The Seahorses that never really got anywhere but were still really decent. The 00's has been a BAD time for rock. Glad I grew up listening to indie in the 90's
