Why is Wolfgang Van Halen trending?
Mammoth WVH’s second album is scheduled to drop on August 4, 2023, but before that, Wolfgang was making headlines for the band’s newest single, I’m Alright.
The song, which was the latest preview from the forthcoming album, showcased Wolfgang’s talents on the electric guitar.
Additionally, the song was a family collaboration for Wolfgang because his uncle, Patrick Bertinelli, was featured on the wah pedal.
“The song I’m Alright, for that solo with the wah… I kind of got bored with the operation of it, so I had my uncle Patrick do it,” Wolfgang explained during an interview with Guitar Interactive.
“You’ll see on the back of the album, ‘All songs written and performed by Wolfgang Van Halen, except for wah operation on solo of I’m Alright by Patrick Bertinelli.’“
Patrick is the brother of Wolfgang’s mother, Valerie.
