The Sea Haggs were an indie rock band formed in Melbourne, Australia in the early 1990s by Perth expatriates Lora Macfarlane and Iain McIntyre, and featuring other members, including Ben Butler. Towards the end of its career, the band also recorded under the name Keckle.

In 1995, the band was wound up when Macfarlane moved to Seattle to join Sleater-Kinney. A compilation of Sea Haggs and Keckle recordings, along with some of Macfarlane's solo work, appeared then under the name "Jelly CD", released by McIntyre's Woozy zine/imprint.

Macfarlane and McIntyre later went on to form ninetynine.
