Sleeper Catcher is the fourth studio album by the Little River Band, released in May 1978. It peaked at No. 4 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart and No. 16 on the Billboard 200.[4] The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA in May 1979.[5]

At the Australian 1978 King of Pop Awards the album won Most Popular Australian Album.[6]

The band is shown on the cover of the album playing the Australian gambling game two-up, and the Sleeper Catcher is a participant who retrieves bets left behind by a tardy gambler in the game.

It was the band's last album to feature George McArdle on bass.[7]
