Â moreRush formed in Toronto, Ontario in the autumn of 1968, initially
comprising guitarist Alex Lifeson (born Alexander Zivojinovich),
vocalist/bassist Geddy Lee (born Gary Lee Weinrib), and drummer John Rutsey. In
their primary incarnation, Rush drew a heavy influence from Cream, and honed
their skills on the Toronto club circuit before issuing their debut single, a
rendition of Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away," in 1973. A self-titled LP followed
in 1974, at which time Rutsey exited; he was replaced by drummer Neil Peart, who
also assumed the role of the band's primary lyricist; his words gradually became
a hallmark of the group's recording aesthetic.

With Peart firmly ensconced, Rush returned in 1975 with a pair of LPs, Fly by
Night and Caress of Steel. The former bore the radio hit "Fly by Night" and
their first metal suite in "By-Tor and the Snow Dog." The album also contained
"Anthem," whose title and subject matter reflected the inspiration of the
dystopian novella of the same title by Russian-American writer and philosopher
Ayn Rand; she would become an even greater inspiration to Peart on 2112 in 1976.
2112 proved their breakthrough release: a futuristic concept album based on the
writings of Rand, it fused the elements of the trio's sound -- Lee's
high-pitched vocals, Peart's epic drumming, and Lifeson's complex guitar work --
into a unified whole. Fans loved it -- 2112 was the first in a long line of gold
and platinum releases. It established a modus operandi the band rarely deviated
from for the duratorion of its career.

As the decade drew to a close, the trio cut back on their touring schedule. In
the studio, they were exploring more textural, synth-driven efforts exemplified
by 1987's Hold Your Fire (that featured Aimee Mann duetting with Lee on the
charting title track single). At the dawn of the '90s, however, Rush returned to
the heavier sound of their early records and placed a renewed emphasis on
Lifeson's guitar sound--1991's Roll the Bones and 1993's Counterparts reached
the Top Three on the U.S. album charts. In 1994, Rush were inducted into the
Canadian Music Hall of Fame. In 1996, the band issued Test for Echo and headed
for the road the following summer. In 1997, Peart lost his daughter in an
automobile accident. The following year Peart's wife succumbed to cancer and he
took a three year break from music. In early 2001, he rejoined his bandmates,
but it would be years before Vapor Trails was released. A concert from the
supporting tour was released to video as Rush in Rio.

A Farewell to Kings followed in 1977 and reached the Top 40 in both the U.S. and
Britain. After 1978's Hemispheres, Rush achieved even greater popularity with
1980's Permanent Waves, a record marked by the group's dramatic shift into
shorter, less-sprawling compositions; the single "The Spirit of Radio" even
became a major hit at radio. With 1981's Moving Pictures, they scored with "Tom
Sawyer," and "Red Barchetta." The former garnered heavy exposure on
album-oriented radio and became what is probably the trio's best-known song. As
the '80s continued, Rush grew into a phenomenally popular live draw, as albums
like 1982's Signals (which generated the smash "New World Man"), 1984's Grace
Under Pressure, and 1985's Power Windows continued to sell millions of copies.

In 2004, Rush embarked on their 30th anniversary tour, documented on the DVD
R30, and in 2006 they returned to the studio to begin work on a new album that
resulted in the 2007's acclaimed Snakes & Arrows. A band associated documentary
called Beyond the Lighted Stage appeared in 2010.

Rush's 19th full-length studio concept album, Clockwork Angels, arrived in June
2012. While the following year wouldn't bring a new album, it did deliver the
next best thing by way ofVapor Trails: Remixed. Along with it, Rush also
released Clockwork Angels Tour, a three-disc live album recorded during their
2012 tour. The band took the next year off, and in 2013 were inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. They returned in 2014 with the R40video box set,
which was released to coincide with the 40th anniversary of Neil Peart's
membership. The following year saw Rush embark on their North American R40 tour,
which was purported to be their last large-scale tour. It was chronicled in the
2015 CD/DVD concert album R40 Live.

Rush continued celebrating that anniversary for the next several years. They
also undertook a reissue project that saw the release of deluxe remastered
versions of catalog titles 2112, Caress of Steel, A Farewell to Kings, and
Hemispheres. The latter proved bittersweet: In January of 2018, Lifeson told
Toronto's Globe & Mail, "We have no plans to tour or record any more. We're
basically done. After 41 years, we felt it was enough." Adding to the finality
of Lifeson's statement, Neil Peart died on January 7, 2020, succumbing to a
three-and-a-half-year battle with brain cancer. He was 67.
