Wolfhgang Van Halen will head out on tour next month after pushing his joint dates with Dirty Honey back due to the pandemic upsurge. He told us he’s already hashing out ideas for Mammoth WVH‘s second album — but admitted he won’t start tracking the new set for a while yet.

We asked him if he’s been doing any recording since wrapping the band’s last string of dates: “Nah, we can’t organize. . . Uh, that’s in the process of being planned with my, uh, producer. He’s got a very busy schedule. I think we’ve hammered out some time, but that won’t be ’til later this year. I’m kind of writing all the time. I find it hard to be like — to pick time, to be, like, ‘I’m going to write now!’ It just kind of happens. So, my phone is always filling up in the voice memos app (laughs). Random little ideas.” SOUNDCDUE
