Exclusively Van Halen: Wolfgang Van Halen on the Art of Soloing “Melody Has to Come First” 10/29/25
We’re diving into a brand-new feature where Wolfgang Van Halen opens up about the art of soloing — and the timeless advice he learned from his dad, Eddie Van Halen.
“My dad would say the best solos are the ones you can hum and sing. It’s fun to have shreddiness, but at the end of the day the melody has to come first.” – Wolfgang Van Halen
With three Mammoth WVH albums now under his belt — the latest being The End — Wolfgang has truly proven himself as a formidable guitarist, songwriter, and producer.
We’ll break down highlights from his new MusicRadar interview, including:
🎶 How he composes solos like “little songs” within songs
🎸 Why melody always comes before speed
🔥 The story behind epic solos like “Same Old Song” and “Take A Bow”
🎛️ The one track on The End where he used a whammy bar!
🤘 And why Smells Like Teen Spirit still inspires him today
Plus, we’ll talk about Wolfgang’s recent Rick Beato interview, and his three-episode appearance on Song Cake, where he shares deeper insight into his creative process, tone, and the evolution of Mammoth WVH.
Join us live and be part of the discussion!
