Polyphia: New Single – Playing God

Genre-bending instrumental band Polyphia are back with “Playing God,” their first song since 2019. The track was produced by guitarists Tim Henson & Scott LePage, alongside JUDGE (Migos & Marshmello, blackbear, Young Thug), and features additional production by the band’s longtime collaborator Y2K (Doja Cat, Remi Wolf, Tove Lo), and Johan Lenox (Kanye, FINNEAS). Co-written with Wes Hauch (Alluvial), the instrumental track features a complex arrangement of nuevo flamenco guitars, bossa nova flair, and trap-influenced rhythms, and sees the band’s guitar virtuosos using nylon string guitars for the first time.

Polyphia is also thrilled to announce their first headlining North American tour this summer. Kicking off July 28 in Houston, TX, the tour will feature support from German progressive metal band Unprocessed and, hardcore duo Death Tour. Tickets are on sale Friday, May 13.
