North London three-piece Let's Wrestle are:

WPG - guitar and vocals
Mike Hankin - bass
Louis Scase - drums

Influenced by the surreal humour of David Shrigley and the homespun stylings of antifolk raconteur Jeffrey Lewis, they sound like a furious amalagram of Swell Maps and ELO.

Let's Wrestle came to the attention of uber-cool indie label Marquis Cha Cha early in 2007, and recorded their debut 45 for the label later that year. They describe said release as a "coherent, thrilling art-pop rush".
