There’s new music from The Tragically Hip today–and it’s a long-lost track fans have been hoping for.

The Tragically Hip was one of those bands who saved everything. (I had a chance to play in their archives when I did a liner notes project for them; it was wild!) And yes, this means there are plenty of unreleased tracks sitting in a vault.

Today’s release (June 20) is “Get Back Again,” a holy grail of sorts because it was recorded back in November 1988, before the band signed their first deal and the Up to Here album. The group would occasionally perform it live, but the only recorded version available until now was a live recording that’s part of the Live at Misty Moon set.

But now, we have an official band-new music video mated to audio that’s been remixed and remastered from the original session. Take a look.
