Event Details
//POLYPHIA//
Guitar-bending instrumental group Polyphia formed in the quiet suburban landscape of Plano, Texas in 2011. Somewhere between blisteringly fast metal guitar god territory and pure pop, the band came up with a sound that was technically brilliant but still managed to include catchy pop hooks with its face-melting guitar soloing. The band initially consisted of dual lead guitarists Tim Henson and Scott LePage, bassist Clay Gober, and drummer Brandon Burkhalter. They released two EPs, 2011's Resurrect (their only recording to feature vocals) and 2013's Inspire, before recording their 2014 full-length debut, Muse. Funds for the recording and production of Muse were raised by the band in an online fundraising campaign to which fans generously donated. The self-released album charted in the Top 100 of Billboard's album chart, and Equal Vision signed Polyphia, reissuing the album in 2015. By the time the album was reissued, Burkhalter had been temporarily replaced by new drummer Randy Methe; however, Burkhalter rejoined in 2015 before leaving again in 2016. Polyphia's second album, Renaissance, their first as a trio, appeared on Equal Vision in March of that year. Spearheaded by the lively single "40oz," 2017's six-track EP The Most Hated delivered a genre-defying blast of technical shredding that drew inspiration from jazz, R&B, electronic, and hip-hop.
//I THE MIGHTY//
San Francisco based prog rock band, I the Mighty, formed in 2007, while members were just high school students. They have toured with Coheed and Cambria, and Dance Gavin Dance. In 2013, their major label debut record, Satori peaked at #10 on the Billboard Heatseekers Charts. Playing Vans Warped Tour in 2014, the band has gained a strong and mighty following. Now with the release of their third record, Where the Mind Wants to Go/Where You Let It Go, which features Tilian Pearson, of Dance Gavin Dance, on the track "Silver Tongues," I the Mighty is ready to take the U.S. by storm supporting Polyphia on their up and coming tour.
