Today, as a sneak peek, The Tragically Hip officially release "Get Back Again," considered by fans as the holy grail of unreleased tracks from the band. The track was recorded prior to signing to their first major record deal with MCA (now Universal Music Canada), produced by Chris Wardman in November 1988, before the Up To Here sessions, now recently remixed and mastered to today's standards. The band performed "Get Back Again" as part of the Live At Misty Moon set, which has been the only recorded version of the track from the band until now, making this a meaningful release for the band and their fans. A brand-new official music video for "Get Back Again"- directed by Cleveland Henderson, son of Pete Henderson who had previously directed many videos of the band including the award winning "Locked In The Trunk Of A Car" and "Courage (For Hugh MacLennan)," will premiere tonight at 7:00PM on The Tragically Hip's YouTube.
