It happened. When Mary Timony hinted at a possible return for Ex Hex on Instagram in 2018 not everyone thought of the immediacy. The band hasn’t released an album since 2014’s Rips, so what would a little bit more time matter? But today, all that changed.

Ex Hex announced the group’s return with its new single, “Cosmic Cave,” which is off the band immanent release It’s Real, out March 22, 2019 on Merge. In addition, the band will be heading on a slew of North American tour dates which you can find listed below.
