Bio / info
Rush was a rock band which formed in Willowdale, Ontario, Canada in 1968. The band's most famous lineup consisted of Geddy Lee (vocals, bass, keyboards), Alex Lifeson (guitar) and Neil Peart (drums). John Rutsey was the original drummer, later replaced by Peart in 1974, shortly after the release of their first album, and three weeks before their first American tour. Peart also became the band's lyricist, and wrote the words for many of the band's best known songs. The band achieved popularity with a style that blended melodic heavy rock with progressive elements in the 70s, and during the 80s adopted a more pop-influenced style and gaining many fans in the process. The 90s and beyond saw them presenting variations on their sound, blending guitar and synthesizers in differing ways. The group's 2015 tour, dubbed "R40" to celebrate 40 years of the band's history, proved to be their last, as health issues for both Peart and Lifeson were proving problematic.
