Mammoth WVH biography

Mammoth WVH is the music project of former Van Halen bassist Wolfgang Van Halen. The debut single "Distance" was released on 16. November 2020 and peaked at #1 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart in February 2021. Mammoth WVH's debut album was released on 11, June 2021. Wolfgang Van Halen chose the band's name to be Mammoth WVH, as a derivative of his father's first band named Mammoth, which eventually evolved into Van Halen. Wolfgang said that the concept for the name came from a combination of inspirations. As a child, he grew up hearing the name of his father's former band believing, "That's the coolest name! When I grow up, I want to call my own band that." The younger Van Halen admired that Eddie had a multi-faceted role including serving as the original lead singer of Mammoth, and with his intentions to solely write, perform, and produce the album, he settled on the name. Upon settling on the title, he presented his idea to his father who responded to it with immense positivity and gave his blessing. Wolfgang eventually dropped the WVH and continued as Mammoth.
