This article is about the indie rock band from Switzerland. For other uses, see Chewy (disambiguation).

Chewy is a indie rock band from Lausanne, Switzerland whose sound, which falls somewhere in the realm of noisy, melodic pop-rock, has been compared to bands like Dinosaur Jr., Superchunk, Placebo, and The Get Up Kids. They recorded one E.P. and two full-length albums during their lifespan: Chewy E.P. (1998), Whattookyousolong (2000), and Somanydynamos (2002).

After not performing for several years, they reformed the band for three concerts in Switzerland in November 2007[1]. This put them back on track and a new 5 piece line-up, including two new members, have started working on a new album for 2009.

In 2006, ex-members of Chewy (Mathieu Urfer & Sébastien Altevogt) created a new band, Sigurd.
