If you’re a musician with the surname Van Halen, you’re probably going to have a degree of attention given to your music, with comparisons drawn to the family members that went ahead of you. Thirtytwo-year-old Wolfgang Van Halen, whose father was Edward, has in just a few short years carved out a career of his own by singing plus playing guitar, bass and drums. The young VH has been fronting Mammoth WVH since the release of the band’s debut album in 2021, and he has been seen on the touring and festival circuit since then, gathering a good fan base built entirely on his own merits.
