POLYPHIA Working on New EP + Release “Lit” Video

by | Dec 15, 2016

You may wanna brush up on those air guitar skills for this one. Polyphia just released their new music video for “Lit” — and while it’s not a new song, it’ll get you in the mood for their Lit AF Tour and the new EP they’re working on.

Let’s talk about the tour first. It’ll be the band’s first-ever US headlining trek. They’ll be bringing along Jason Richardson and Covet for the ride, which kicks off in mid-February and end on April Fools’ Day.

And no, we’re not joking around when we say new music is on the way. The band have been quietly working on an EP that’s due out sometime in 2017. From what we’ve heard, it’s a different direction from their previous releases. So stay tuned.

Here’s their video for “Lit.”
