The Wombats are an English indie rock band formed in Liverpool in 2003, consisting of Matthew Murphy (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards), Tord Øverland Knudsen (bass, backing vocals, keyboards), and Dan Haggis (drums, backing vocals, keyboards).

The Wombats released several EPs before working on their first full-length album Girls, Boys and Marsupials (2006), which was released only in Japan and featured some tracks that would reappear on their major-label debut studio album A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation (2007). After releasing a self-titled EP in 2008 and touring for three years, they released the studio albums This Modern Glitch (2011), Glitterbug (2015), and Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life (2018), all of which received mostly positive reviews. Their fifth album Fix Yourself, Not the World (2022) became their first No. 1 album, topping the UK Albums Chart within a week of release.
