Writing all the songs and performing all the instrumentation and vocals for the debut album, Wolfgang Van Halen set out to establish his own musical identity. From the rocking opening guitar riff on album opener âMr. Edâ to the driving bass and drums on album closer âStone,â Mammoth WVH showcases the various musical influences that have inspired Wolfgang. Songs like âResolve,â âThe Big Pictureâ and âThink It Overâ are all sonically different from each other but unique to what Mammoth WVH is. The first two singles, âDistanceâ and âDonât Back Down,â found their way to the #1 spot at Active Rock Radio in the USA. The single âDistanceâ was also nominated for a GRAMMY in the Best Rock Song category that saw Wolfgang Van Halen nominated alongside the Foo Fighters, Paul McCartney, Kings of Leon and Weezer. Recently, Wolfgang made headlines performing at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute show at Wembley Stadium in London alongside Justin Hawkins, Dave Grohl and Josh Freese; he will also perform at the Los Angeles tribute later this month. Â
