[2] Voyager formed in 1999 at the University of Western Australia by Daniel Estrin, Mark Baker, and Adam Lovkis.
The band saw a few line-up changes before recording the album Element V in 2003 with Aidan Barton at Sovereign Studios, Willetton, Western Australia.
[5] Voyager's popularity increased rapidly following the European release of Element V and the band secured its first major support, opening for Steve Vai in Perth in July 2004.
Voyager performed at Melbourne's Corner Hotel in late 2005 as part of a Screaming Symphony radio benefit concert, playing for the first time out of their home state of Western Australia.
Towards the end of 2006, Emanuel and Geoff departed the band and were replaced by Simone Dow and Mark Boeijen respectively, just prior to the recording of the follow-up album, uniVers.
In early 2006, Voyager entered Sovereign studios to record "uniVers", with Boeijen and Dow as firm members of the band.
[10] It was named as #7 of the Full Metal Racket albums of 2007 by Australia's national alternative broadcasting station Triple J.
[12] The band parted ways with bass player Melissa Fiocco shortly after the release of uniVers, a split which was not without controversy.
Shortly after Canion's first appearance with Voyager in Perth, Western Australia, the band embarked on a mini-tour to Sydney and Melbourne with labelmates Eyefear, to promote uniVers.
In June 2008, guitarist Mark De Vattimo quit Voyager due to personal and professional differences.
In 2010, Voyager was nominated three times as a top 10 finalist at the Australian MusicOz Awards for "Lost", "The Devil in Me" and the video for the latter.
[20] The band also picked up a nomination for 2010 WAMI "Best hard rock/metal act" presented by the West Australian Music Industry.
The album features guest vocal performances by DC Cooper (Royal Hunt) and Daniel Tompkins (Tesseract, ex-Skyharbor).
Following its performance on Eurovision - Australia Decides, "Dreamer" debuted at number 6 on the Australian Independent Label Singles chart.
While in London, on April 20, 2023 Voyager performed to a sold-out show at the Boston Music Room to rave reviews.
[39] June 2023 saw Voyager embark on a headlining national tour, playing in Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Canberra.
On 21 September 2023, the band announced the cancellation of their headline European tour, which was scheduled to begin in October, due to lead singer Daniel Estrin having been diagnosed with cancer.
