Breaking: Eddie Valen Halen’s wife Janie Liszewski at 54 years suffering a Cardiac Arrhythmia comfirm by…
With a name like Wolfgang Van Halen, the rock star needs little introduction, but the bassist’s net worth is still an interesting figure that shows just how much the top musicians can make. Van Halen, alongside Black Sabbath, Aerosmith, Kiss, Queen, and AC/DC, was one of the key bands who helped return hard rock to the mainstream music scene after the genre slowly gestated in the 1960s with bands like Led Zeppelin, the Who, and the Rolling Stones dabbling in it. Formed in 1973, the band featured Eddie Van Halen, his brother Alex Van Halen, David Lee Roth, and Michael Anthony.
Van Halen songs have frequently appeared in movies, and the band remains an important part of pop culture. Wolfgang Van Halen, Eddy’s and actress Valerie Bertinelli’s son, joined the band in 2007 as a bassist and played until the band retired in 2020 after the death of his father. He also performed with another group, Tremonti, from 2012 to 2016, and after Eddy passed and Van Halen disbanded, Wolfgang began focusing on his solo project, Mammoth WVH. In July 2022, Wolfgang became engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Andraia Allsop, and the pair married in October 2023 (via People).
According to CelebrityNetWorth, Wolfgang Van Halen has a net worth of around $20 million. It’s likely Wolfgang inherited a hefty sum from his famous father and touring with Van Halen for 13 years would have provided an impressive income as well. Wolfgang played a large part in Van Halen’s 12th and final studio album, A Different Kind of Truth, which sold nearly 400,000 records in the year it was released (via VHND) and debuted at the number 2 spot on the Billboard Top 200.
Though neither Tremonti nor Mammoth WVH is as big as Van Halen, Wolfgang has surely earned some income from album sales and touring for both bands.

Wolfgang has never appeared in movies or TV shows like Eddie Van Halen did, but there’s always time to add an acting portfolio to his resume as well if he’d like another income stream.
Wolfgang Van Halen is 5′ 10″ according to IMDb, and he was born on March 16, 1991, making him 33 in the summer of 2024. That means Wolfgang is also a Pisces. Pisces signs are water signs, symbolized by two swimming fish. These signs are clairvoyant and imaginative, making them excellent creatives and artists (via Allure). They are also known to be invigorated by music and romance. As a lifelong musician, Wolfgang has all the natural creativity and deep well of musical talent and creativity the sign is known for.
Though he is best known as the bassist for Van Halen, Wolfgang’s artistry extends far beyond one instrument and one band. He began his career playing drums, like his uncle, Alex, before moving on to guitar and finally bass. Wolfgang first picked up a bass when his dad asked if he wanted to play with the band. Wolfgang recalls (via GuitarWorld),
“I always viewed bass as an easier version of guitar, but as soon as I started playing it I realized how wrong that was. It’s completely different, but I felt like I could handle it since I had been playing guitar for so long.”
Wolfgang also played bass for Tremonti for four years and, in his solo project Mammoth WVH, Wolfgang writes every song and plays every instrument. He was featured on the Barbie soundtrack, as one of the guitarists of “I’m Just Ken”, and was on stage during the live performance at the 96th Academy Awards. A multi-talented musician who seems like he’s only doing more, Wolfgang Van Halen‘s net worth looks like it’s only going to go up.
