The Tragically Hip said an emotional goodbye to Canada last month….but that doesnt mean Gord Downie is done at all. In fact he has revealed a new project called ‘Secret Path.” It will be in the form of a new album and a graphic novel that will come out October 18th. Then on October 23rd, an animated film will air on CBC.

The whole concept is inspired by a First Nations boy who died running away from a residential school in Ontario back in 1966…and this will come out on the 50th anniversary of his death. The proceeds from sales will go to the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation.

Check out the trailer, which also has a taste of the music here:
