Polyphia's Tim Henson and Scott LePage: What's on My Playlist
1. “Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)”—Jimi Hendrix
“Jimi has been my idol ever since I started playing guitar. Whenever I’m trying to channel some iconic rockstar shit, I play this song.” —Henson
2. “Gucci Gang”—Lil Pump
“I’m a Gucci guy at heart, so this song just speaks to me. Pump has such a gentle soul and it really shows through in this track.” —Henson
3. “Texas Flood”—Stevie Ray Vaughan
“When I’m on tour, listening to this song is therapeutic because it has ‘Texas’ in it and reminds me of home. I can just feel every damn note he’s playing—it makes me do that scrunchyface thing people do when they hear something sick.” —LePage
4. “Lil Haiti Baby”—Future
