Polaris have paid tribute to their late guitarist Ryan Siew with a new song titled “Without You.” You can find a video for that track below. The group said the following about the single:
“Never did we imagine that we would one day have reason to write this song. But three years on, we find ourselves still making sense of this immeasurable tragedy, and what it has meant to be left in the wake. This is the sound of crushing loss, shock, grief and heartache, and the beginning of us learning how to share that with the world.”

He also discussed “The Sea of Emotion, Part 3,” which includes a reel-to-reel recording from an early lesson he gave Vai when they were teenagers:
“It illustrates just how far we’ve come. We’re these two kids who haven’t found our sound yet, but we’ve got enthusiasm. We’re chasing something, and we’re determined.”
Vai added:
“That’s when I really feel, like, wow, we really did it. It’s a beautiful coming together of me and my friend in a very intimate musical way. That was the reason we did the record.”
