The song was recorded in 2022 with his solo band

David Lee Roth has shared a new solo version of the Van Halen song “Jump” on his YouTube channel. The version stems from a May 2022 recording session at Henson Recording Studio in Hollywood with his solo band consisting of Al Estrada on guitar, Ryan Wheeler on bass, and Francis Valentino on drums.

This is Roth’s 13th solo release in two years. The track is among the 14 recorded “live” in two hours on May 3, 2022, and was produced by Tom Syrowski. Additional songs recorded at the time include a solo version of Van Halen’s “Atomic Punk,” “Unchained,” “You Really Got Me,” “Dance The Night Away,” “Panama,” “Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love” and “Everybody Want Some.”

Last month, Roth released “Hi-Fashion Girl,” a song he recorded with guitarist John 5 in 2007. Five of those songs were released as part of The Roth Project in 2020, with the others dropping sporadically over the past two years, including “Somewhere Over The Rainbow Bar And Grill,” “Low-Rez Sunset,” “Giddy-Up!,” “Alligator Pants,” “Pointing At The Moon,” “Nothing Could Have Stopped Us Back Then,” (a song about Van Halen), “Manda Bala,” and “The Shit That Killed Elvis.”

It’s unclear if Roth plans to put any of the songs together in an album format.

Roth announced his retirement in late 2021 with a “career-ending residency” at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. However, “due to unforeseen circumstances related to COVID and out of an abundance of caution for those working and attending the shows,” the entire thing was canceled, even after the addition of new shows with Roth giving Fox News a cryptic tease about not actually retiring.

“There’s always a tomorrow for a singer. Not so much for a trombone player these days, okay?” he says. “How many times did Rocky retire? Seven. I think number three was my favorite? How many times did Rambo have to come out of retirement in order to make the sequel?”

Roth has not rescheduled the residency dates nor has he shared any future plans as of press time.
