Wolfgang Van Halen’s Mammoth releases ‘I Really Wanna’

The track & video are available now

Wolfgang Van Halen is back with the third track from his upcoming studio album, The End. “I Really Wanna” comes on the heels of active rock No. 1 single “The End” and the newly released single, “The Spell.” The instant grat track “I Really Wanna” is a funky rocker that showcases Wolfgang’s unique feel and technique on every instrument. A music video for the song is also being released that shows Wolfgang playing in the iconic 5150 studio where the song was recorded. The song was produced by friend and collaborator Michael “Elvis” Baskette.

Scheduled for release on October 24th, Mammoth returns with The End via label home BMG. The 10-track album clocks in at 39 minutes 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 sophomore release, Mammoth II. From the hypnotic opening of “One Of A Kind” to the 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 No. 1. That 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 five million views and contains cameos from Danny Trejo, Slash, Myles Kennedy, and his mother, Valerie Bertinelli. Mammoth also released the new single “The Spell,” which is impacting radio.

Mammoth has become known for being road warriors, constantly taking to the road to play its music for the masses whenever they can. The band recently wrapped seven weeks on the road with longtime friends in Creed. Backed by his live band featuring Jon Jourdan, Frank Sidoris, Ronnie Ficarro, and Garrett Whitlock, Wolfgang and Mammoth will hit the road on a fall headline run. The End Tour kicks off on October 31st in Rancho Mirage, CA, and runs for five weeks before it wraps up on December 7th in Anaheim, CA. Longtime friend Myles Kennedy will be the special guest on the run.
