Exclusively Van Halen: NEW Van Halen Album with Steve Lukather? #vanhalen 3/13/25

In an unexpected turn of events, reports from the Netherlands suggest that Alex Van Halen is working on a brand-new Van Halen album, and he's enlisted Steve Lukather to help complete the project! For years, speculation surrounded the Van Halen name—whether it was the abandoned tribute tour featuring Jason Newsted and Joe Satriani or Sammy Hagar’s Best of All Worlds Tour keeping the music alive. But now, it looks like a 13th Van Halen studio album is actually happening! Alex Van Halen has confirmed that he’s working with Lukather, stating, “Ed and Steve Lukather were very good friends and they often worked together. There is no one who can do this process with me as well as he can.” Lukather responded, “Ed, Alex, and I were very close for years. It is true that we worked on it together.” Lukather’s connection to the Van Halen brothers runs deep—from jamming together to Eddie playing bass on Lukather’s solo album and even collaborating on Michael Jackson’s Beat It! But the big question remains: 💥 What will this new Van Halen album sound like? 💥 Who else will be involved? Will any former Van Halen vocalists join the project? 💥 Alex even explored AI to complete unfinished Van Halen demos! Could this album feature unheard Eddie Van Halen recordings? There’s still a lot we don’t know, but one thing is certain—Van Halen’s legacy is far from over. Stay tuned for updates! 👉 What do you think about this new Van Halen album?
