White Wolf is a heavy metal ensemble originating from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, under the leadership of Don Wolf.
History
Initially established in 1975 under the name Slamm, and later known as Warrior, the group ultimately adopted the name White Wolf. Following numerous performances within their local scene, they obtained a deal with RCA Records and released their first album, Standing Alone, in 1984. To promote this release, the band embarked on tours across Canada, the United States, Europe, and Japan.
In 1986, their sophomore album Endangered Species was issued, featuring the track "She," which was accompanied by a music video. Shortly after this release, the band dissolved but made a comeback in 2007 with the album Victim Of The Spotlight. That same year included a tour in Germany; a live album capturing performances from this tour was subsequently released in 2008 as WHITE WOLF Live in Germany through Escape Music.
White Wolf has maintained occasional live appearances at regional venues as of 2016.
