GRAMMY® Award-nominated songwriter, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Wolfgang Van Halen is back with the third track from his upcoming studio album, The End. “I Really Wanna” comes on the heels of US Active Rock #1 single “The End” and the newly released single, “The Spell.”


Instant grat belter “I Really Wanna” is a funky rocker that showcases Wolfgang’s unique feel and technique on every instrument. The song was produced by friend and collaborator Michael “Elvis” Baskette. The song is available via all digital streaming platforms and can be found here.


A music video for the song is also being released that shows Wolfgang playing in the iconic 5150 studio where the song was recorded.


Pre-order all things The End here.





Briefly in the UK to promote the upcoming album, Mammoth's Wolfgang Van Halen and Jon Jourdan will visit Kingston upon Thames this Friday night, for a rare and intimate In Conversation event along with a short stripped back set. The Banquet Records event takes place at St John's Church, with doors opening approximately 7pm.

You can also pre-order a limited edition vinyl, signed by Wolfgang, with alternative art J-card sleeve here.


Scheduled for release on October 24th, Mammoth returns with The End via label home BMG. The 10-track album clocks in at 39-minuttes and showcases the evolution of Wolf and his songwriting since he launched his solo career in 2020. Continuing the tradition of writing all the songs and performing all the instrumentation and vocals himself, Wolfgang Van Halen set out to challenge himself beyond what he did on his debut and then second release, Mammoth II.


From the hypnotic opening of “One Of A Kind” to infectious closer “All In Good Time,” Wolfgang demonstrates his proficiency as a musician and songwriter. Songs like “Same Old Song,” “Happy,” and “Selfish” will fit perfectly alongside older songs that fans have already come to love from Mammoth. Mammoth released their first single in May, and it shot up the charts landing at #1. That title track single featured a landmark music video – a remake of the classic film From Dusk ‘Til Dawn – directed by Robert Rodriguez and Greg Nicotero. The video has received over 5 million views and contains cameos from Danny Trejo, Slash, Myles Kennedy, and of course his mother Valerie Bertinelli.


Mammoth also released the new single “The Spell” which is currently impacting radio. The End is available for pre-order in multiple configurations including limited edition vinyl colours, signed insert version, and retailer exclusives here: https://Mammoth.lnk.to/TheEndAlbum
