Rush tribute to Neil Peart

Overview

In early August 2026 a feature traced Neil Peart’s drum‑kit evolution and highlighted Rush’s signature songs. Days later the band performed a series of Madison Square Garden shows, featuring video tributes and guest drummer Anika Nilles, and announced a documentary, *Neil Peart: No One’s Disciple*. The film, slated for a CBC premiere on 23 September as part of the network’s The Passionate Eye series, is directed by Scot McFadyen and Sam Dunn. It includes rare archival footage, intimate interviews with Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, and performances by guest drummers Stewart Copeland, Chad Smith and Danny Carey on classic Rush tracks, underscoring Peart’s influence on contemporary drummers. The documentary and the ongoing Fifty Something tour continue a coordinated 2026 effort to celebrate Peart’s legacy through media, live performance and historical retrospectives.
