Polyphia is an American instrumental rock band from Plano, Texas, formed in 2010. The quartet - guitarists Tim Henson and Scott LePage, bassist Clay Gober, and drummer Clay Aeschliman - built a reputation for technically virtuosic guitar work fused with hip-hop, EDM, and funk influences. Their 2018 album "New Levels New Devils" broke them to a wider audience, and "Remember That You Will Die" (2022) cemented their standing as one of the most inventive acts in modern guitar music. In August 2026 they announced their fifth studio album, "Be Not Afraid", due October 23, 2026.
Polyphia announced their fifth studio album "Be Not Afraid", scheduled for October 23, 2026, along with the single "Power in the Blood".
The North American tour dates were postponed from 2026 to early 2027, while the European and British dates in November and December 2026 remain unchanged.
The band released the single "Can You Feel It" as the first preview of the new album, featuring a heavier and more electronic sound than previous work.
Polyphia released their first live album: "Live at the Factory in Deep Ellum", recorded on April 14, 2023 in Dallas, Texas.
