Speaking on the release, Tim Henson shares, “‘Original Sin’ started as something digital with synths and keys, but once I translated it to my nylon-string guitar, everything clicked. I wanted to play with contradiction: a waltz that feels like it’s driving forward, something elegant but uncomfortable. Conceptually, it’s about choice. If you’re forced to do the right thing, it doesn’t mean anything. That idea – freedom, temptation, consequence – is something I’ve been thinking about a lot.” The title “Original Sin,” which Henson frames less as a moral lesson and more as a metaphor, is about creation as a game of agency, where meaning only exists because choice does. The philosophy extends into the music video which visually reinforces these themes. The vision behind Henson’s forthcoming clothing brand launch of the same name, is a high-end, complementary creative extension of the release, merging elevated design with the same meticulous attention to detail that defines his music. While Polyphia remains a central focus for 2026, “Original Sin” offers a rare, unfiltered look at Henson as a solo artist. With millions of followers across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, Henson’s influence spans far beyond the guitar world – bridging fans of music, philosophy, culture, fashion and innovation. |
