Chappaqua Wrestling Celebrate an Ending and the Closing of a Chapter with New Single ‘NEED YOU NO MORE’

Chappaqua Wrestling have today released their latest single, ‘Need You No More’, another harbinger of the band’s forthcoming debut LP, ‘Plus Ultra’, which is scheduled to drop this coming 14 April.

Following the band’s previous tasters of their debut album, with singles such as ‘Full Round Table’, ‘Wayfinding’ and ‘Wide Asleep’, a clearer vision of the band’s mindset has emerged. They’ve lit a match under corrupt politicians, toasted the power of freewheeling revelry and lampooned social media’s ability to warp minds. With the arrival of ‘Need You No More’, the band is stepping into a freer and lighter place, finally able to celebrate an ending and the closing of a chapter. The band explain:

“With ‘Need You No More’ we took a huge glug from the hedonist’s bottle, spitting the cork to the gutter. We finished recording our album after a heavy and focussed 12-day session in a Welsh field and needed some release. We wanted a song that is pure energy, pure elation and pure vibe, and we recorded it all live in one room together, lights off, getting rid of the prior considerations. Its message gets close to a love song, but its oxymoron-laced lyrics and rawness gave us the hedonistic release that we needed. Sometimes it’s more difficult to switch off than to stay on, so ecstatically enjoying the present moment when we can is something we should all celebrate.”

The band’s anthems for togetherness have brought them support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, 6 Music, Radio X (where ‘Wide Asleep’ has just been Track of The Week), Clash, Consequence, DIY, Dork, Gigwise, i Paper, Line of Best Fit, MTV, NME, Rolling Stone, Soccer AM, FIFA 23 and more.
