Chuck Maultsby and Scott Bish formed the original CHUCK WAGON and the WHEELS in 1977 mostly as a joke.
A self-titled record album was released in 1978 that recieved just enough attention to inspire a second LP in 1979 titled "COUNTRY
SWINGS, DISCO SUCKS" that recieved international attention (really) which inspired three more albums, four singles
and a half dozen compiliation albums... not to mention the constant interstate touring. By 1984 the band began to disintegrate
and by 1998, after keeping the ball rolling for 14 more years, Chuck sold the band name to a Nashville based band (not really
believing that anyone would actually pay for such a silly name). The 'new' CHUCK WAGON and the WHEELS got a song charted in
2000 called "Beauty is in the Eyes of the Beer Holder" ... so, there is, and will always be, some confusion regarding
who the real CHUCK WAGON and the WHEELS really is... or was. Chuck and Scott, along with whoever and whatever, can
still be found playing moldy old cliche country and rock (crock) bar toons for the drunken masses, and others, around
L.A. (Lower Arizona).
