Chappaqua Wrestling frontmen Charlie Woods and Jake Mac met at school when they were 14 years old.
They both liked the indie music of the time. But, growing up in “boring suburbia” outside Brighton, what really cemented their friendship was a shared love of Manchester bands like New Order, Joy Division, and Happy Mondays.
“When you find someone who has an interest in what you’re doing, when you find anyone who’s on the same wavelength, when it feels like you’re in this sea of people who just don’t get it, those relationships are so, so special,” remembers Woods.
