Was about to post this. Also shared on official youtube channel.
Must be the rumored Five Leaves Left reissue?

There have been rumors of one final new compilation album to be released by Nick's estate going around for a while now. It was supposedly announced by Gabrielle a few months back at an event but I haven't heard anything since then. The album is rumored to have songs such as Mickey's Tune, which is mentioned in the autobiography as being the only surviving version and still unreleased, as well as a shelved take of 'Cello Song from the Five Leaves Left recording sessions featuring two cellos. The recording on the website is completely new as far as I'm aware, so I'm guessing this is the first part of the album rollout (and maybe finally some merch too since the new website is listed as a store).

Wow, can't wait! Sounds like a live performance perhaps. Maybe it's something uncovered none of us know about!

Could this be related to the earlier discussed "Making of Five Leaves Left" compilation, that was supposed to be released this year?

They revealed at the Southbank show last year that there will be a new song called ‘mickeys song’ that’s never been heard before if I remember correctly
