While Broken Social Scene only just released EP Let's Try the After - Vol. 1 last month, the band have now announced plans to revisit some of their older material at SXSW.

As part of their festival itinerary, the Canadian collective will play their 2002 album You Forgot It in People in its entirety at an Arts & Crafts showcase later this month. The 11 p.m. set goes down at 92 Rainey St. in Austin on March 14.

The band's run at SXSW comes ahead of their previously announced residency dates in Toronto, New York, Montreal, Los Angeles and Seattle. You can find their complete SXSW schedule here, and their residency dates below.

As previously reported, BSS also have a release coming out for Record Store Day on April 13, when Let's Try the After will get a 12-inch vinyl pressing. You can learn more about the release here, as well as check out the full list of RSD exclusives over here.
