Chalkie White

Chalkie White is a pure entertainer, driven by his love of music he has been touring and performing
across Australia for the past 20 years. From the age of 9 when he first picked up a guitar, White has
been honing his craft. At the age of 16 it was time to join a band, and by 18 talent quests were a
staple for Chalkie. Winning the Gympie Muster Talent Search in 2001 and cracking the Toyota Star
Maker grand final at Tamworth in 2002 were early career highlights that helped prove his credentials
on a bigger stage.
The year 2016 brought a new bout of life challenges for White when he was diagnosed with cancer
and made many important life decisions, one of which was to make his next great song count and
release it for the world to enjoy.
Now 2017, this rounded and travelled Country Music artist has released his highest ever charting
single. The track ͚New Day͛ hit #4 on the iTunes Country Singles charts and cemented Chalkie yet
again as a serious artist on the Australian music scene. The year ahead will see White completing an
album and tackling the next level.
