Formed in 1986 after the demise of the Sea Beasts, a band at Columbia University. Ted Houghton, Tomas Antona, Dave Giffen and Tom Meltzer recruited drummer Stephen Moses and quickly found a substantial audience at CBGB. Guitarist Michael Jung soon replaced Meltzer, Austrian born Bassist Sissi Schulmeister joined the band in 1991. By 1991 the lineup had changed to Tomas Antona: lead vocals, Michael Jung: guitar, Richard Marshall: guitar, Stephen Moses: drums, Sissi Schulmeister: bass. This lineup recorded and toured relentlessly, eventually disbanding in 1996. Between 1988 and 1996 the band toured in the United States, Europe and Japan and played over 1000 shows, including a show at the Reading Festival in 1993.
Alice Donut released 11 full-length albums and some EPs, singles, and other releases on Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label and various other labels.
In 2001 Alice Donut started recording and writing again and in 2003's Three Sisters, their first release after their hiatus, was recorded as a four-piece with Tom Antona on vocals, Michael Jung on guitar, Stephen Moses on drums and Sissi Schulmeister on bass.
