The Chameleons (The Chameleons UK, na versão norte-americana), foi uma banda britânica do pós-punk, formada em 1981, em Manchester. A banda era constituída por Mark Burgess (vocais e baixo), Reg Smithies (guitarra), Dave Fielding (guitarra) e John Lever (bateria; em substituição de Brian Schofield, um dos membros fundadores).
Caracterizados por um estilo de rock alternativo melódico, os Chameleons interromperam a sua carreira em 1986, após terem lançado três álbuns, por morte do seu manager Tony Fletcher.
De 1986 a 2001, os membros da banda seguem projectos a solo: Burgess e Lever com os Sun and the Moon, e Smithies e Fielding nos The Reegs. Neste período de quinze anos, apenas são editados álbuns de concertos ao vivo.
Em 2001, reunem-se e lançam novo álbum de originais, Why Call It Anything ?. Até 2002, ano em que de novo se separam, efectuam diversos concertos pela Europa e Estados Unidos.
