The Tragically Hip ‘Up To Here’ Deluxe Boxset Coming This November

June 22, 2024

The Tragically Hip is releasing a special deluxe boxset of their Diamond-certified debut album, Up To Here, on November 8. The LP was originally released on September 5, 1989, and included two Canadian #1 singles, “Blow at High Dough” and “New Orleans is Sinking”. That success spurred on a JUNO Award win for “Most Promising Artist” in 1990.

As you can see below, this reissue is huge – and has a 2024 remastering of the original LP (with four previously unreleased songs; “She’s Got What It Takes,” “Get Back Again,” “Rain, Hearts And Fire” and “Wait So Long”!

The Tragically Hip formed in 1984 – 40 years ago! This year the band has decided to go into their vault to share some gems with their fans. If you haven’t seen the four-part Amazon Prime Documentary, No Dress Rehearsal, dive in! And, on October 1, the band will release a deluxe, hand-crafted book called This Is Our Life.

You can pre-order the boxset here!
