The Chalets were an indie five-piece from Dublin, Ireland, active from 2001 to 2008. Formed in 2001, the band took their name from the fact that they were sharing chalet accommodation at the All Tomorrow’s Parties music festival in East Sussex, 2001.

In February 2005 they were the victors of the Best New Band award at the Meteor Music Awards. Their first release was a split 7” (with Neosupervital) of “Two Chord Song” on the independent RoadRelish label, for which the band made their own artwork. It was quickly followed by a double-A side 7” released in March 2004 on Nasty Pop/Setanta Records, featuring “Theme From Chalets” and “Sexy Mistake”, the latter being chosen by MTV as the soundtrack for the MTV branding campaign in Ireland. “The Nightrock EP” followed in October, their first release on CD, and the lead track “Nightrocker” was used worldwide (except in the United States) in the trailer for the film Madagascar… The EP was recorded in Dublin with Richard Rainey and Gareth Mannix.

The band were selected by the Irish government to represent Ireland by travelling to Slovenia in 2005 to take part in the celebrations for the country’s adoption into the European Union. They also wrote the music for TG4’s IFTA award-winning youth drama Aifric.

Their songs “Theme From Chalets”, “Nightrocker”, and “Sexy Mistake” have all been used on Grey’s Anatomy, “Sexy Mistake” being included on the second season’s soundtrack. “Nightrocker” is also featured in the video game Outlaw Tennis.
