What is Chalk?
CHALK is a South Australian based band targeting children aged 5 – 12 years with original songs, live instruments and comedy giving them a true rock concert experience without the dangers of the moshpit. CHALK is the only original indie/alternative band in Australia performing for this age group guaranteed not to annoy parents and older siblings!
Brief History
Since 1998, CHALK has performed extensively for corporate and public events as well as toured shows to primary schools throughout all Australian states and territories (except Queensland). To date (July 2004), CHALK has performed over 1000 shows to an approximate audience of 300,000 people.
Musical styles and influences
CHALK is influenced by a wide range of contemporary artists including Frenzal Rhomb, The White Stripes, Peter Coombe, The Waifs, Henry Rollins, Tenacious D and other mainstream and alternative bands that children are already listening to. Styles are varied from Rock, Ska, Ska, Folk, Country right through to Hip-Hop.
Furthermore…
CHALK believes that children past junior primary school age have little access to music that both appeals to them and is appropriate to their age level. CHALK’s music bridges the gap between child and adult genres.
