Trace RitterPast members Rob Ahlers Chalk FarM is an alternative rock band from Los Angeles that released two albums in the late 90's. The band broke up in 2000.[1]
They are best known for their song Lie On Lie, which was played for a short time on MTV in late 1996 and received radio airplay in the United States nationwide. Despite critical approval and a cult following, the album did not sell well, and the band was dropped from major label Columbia Records soon thereafter.[2]
Chalk farM appear as the band playing at the conclusion of the film Coyote Ugly.[3]
According to Chalk farM's Facebook page, the 4 original members are back together, playing regularly in the Los Angeles area, and are "doing a new record."[4]
