Paul Langlois, the guitarist for the Tragically Hip, has launched his own record label, Ching Music.

The company's inaugural release is the Hugh Dillon Redemption Choir's High Cost of Low Living, which will land in record stores on June 7. Langlois also handled producing duties on the album, recorded at the Hip's Bathouse Studio near Kingston, Ont.

"Paul Langlois is like Dave Grohl -- everybody loves him and he's a genius when it comes to rock and roll," Dillon told the Canadian Press, comparing his producer to the former Nirvana drummer-turned Foo Fighters leader who has been a booster for groups like Queens of the Stone Age.
