They were primarily a studio group which involved a collaboration between Terry McCarthy on vocals and keyboards, and Mark Moffatt on guitar, bass guitar and keyboards. They used various guest vocalists. Their debut single, "Singin' in the '80s", was released in 1980 and reached No. 16 on the Kent Music Report singles chart.

A second single, "Nobody Told Me" (June 1981), peaked in the top 40. The Monitors issued a sole album, Back from Their Recent Illness (October 1982), for which Ricky Fataar had joined on drums, percussion, guitar and keyboards. The group disbanded in 1982.
