Wolfgang Van Halen’s Mammoth Drops Summer 2026 Tour Dates
Wolfgang Van Halen and his band Mammoth have announced new headlining tour dates for 2026 to continue supporting their latest album, The End. The new concerts will be among their previously announced dates with Creed.
Mammoth’s dates begin July 12th with Creed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. They’ll make their way through the Midwest United States and into the South, eventually turning north again. After a run up the East Coast, they’ll wrap things up on August 8th in Monroe, Michigan.
Although he played bass in Van Halen, Wolfgang plays everything on the Mammoth recordings. The live bass is handled by Ronnie Ficaro, who gave a rundown of his basses to Nick Wells of Bass Player last year.
“With Mammoth I play an EVH prototype that was built by Chip Ellis at the Fender Custom Shop. The relic finish is vintage white over black, which matches Wolf’s EVH SA-126 guitar. There are only two that exist!” he explains. “It’s fitted with EVH custom bass humbuckers and a 6-way pickup selector switch, but I keep things in the second position most of the time, which is everything on. It’s the setting that sounds the closest to my Gibson G3.”
Watch him play the bass in this live performance of “The End” from the Debonair Music Hall in Teaneck, New Jersey last year.
