Mammoth – have just announced a headline show for The Academy, Dublin

Mammoth have just announced a headline Academy, Dublin show for Tuesday, 15^th December 2026 as part of their ‘The End’ Tour. 

Grammy award-nominated songwriter, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Wolfgang Van Halen continues to separate Mammoth from the pack. The music stands alone on a foundation anchored by his impressive sonic proficiency (across drums, bass, keys, and guitar) and airtight arena-size hooks with unforgettable vocals. He harbours an irresistible signature sound, inventive vision, and incomparable identity vaunted by a fervent global fanbase. For as unique as the music is, his story so far proves to be just as unprecedented. This is arguably the first hard rock act to genuinely break out from ground zero in the 2020’s, generating north of 100 million streams, toppling charts, and selling out headline tours less than five years since its debut.

As always, Wolfgang pushes forward on Mammoth’s third full-length LP, The End. “I’m constantly striving to be my own unique artist even though my last name naturally generates comparisons,” says Wolfgang. “I’m proud of this record because it represents major growth in all angles. There’s a sense of progression to the songwriting. I think it’s a big turning point.”

He certainly put in the work to reach this point. Back in 2021, Mammoth’s first offering, Mammoth WVH, took flight, bowing at #12 on the Billboard 200 and capturing #1 on three Billboard charts—Top Hard Rock Albums, Top Independent Albums, and Top Rock Albums.  “Distance” soared as the first of two #1 Rock Radio Hits and earned a Grammy Award nomination for “Best Rock Song.” Two years later, Mammoth II only saw him pick up the pace. It debuted in the Top 5 of the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart in addition to bringing him back to #1 on the Top Hard Rock Albums Chart. Inciting widespread applause from Rolling Stone, Guitar World, GRAMMY.com, KERRANG!, and more, Classic Rock hailed it as “a solo second that betters his debut in every department,” and American Songwriter applauded, “II reveals a closer representation of what Mammoth is now and Van Halen’s dynamism as a musician and as a writer.” The band canvased the globe with Metallica, supported Foo Fighters in North America, supported Creed on their record-breaking tour as well as filling houses on their own. They performed on NBC’s TODAY, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and at the 2024 MusiCares “Person of the Year” benefit gala in honor of Jon Bon Jovi. Not to mention, Wolfgang shared the stage with Ryan Gosling, Mark Ronson and Slash at the 2024 Academy Awards performing “I’m Just Ken” from the blockbuster Barbie movie. He also joined Maynard James Keenan [Tool, A Perfect Circle], Chad Smith [Red Hot Chili Peppers], Robert Trujillo [Metallica], and producer Andrew Watt for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction of Ozzy Osbourne that same year.
