Geddy Lee Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

If you have not heard the music world is buzzing as Geddy Lee just set the rock community alight with the announcement that Rush will return to the stage in 2026 for the first time in over a decade. According to Rushs official site Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are reuniting to headline the highly anticipated Fifty Something Tour celebrating over 50 years of Rush music and honoring the legacy of their late bandmate Neil Peart. This truly monumental announcement marks a profound moment for longtime fans and was highlighted by the fact that their very first show will take place at the Forum in Los Angeles where their last tour ended back in 2015. The entire sequence feels as though Rush is opening up a fresh chapter while beautifully tying off the last one.

CBC News reported Monday that Geddy and Alex posted a video to social media confirming they have been secretly rehearsing an ambitious setlist of about 35 Rush classics. The new drummer joining them is acclaimed German musician Anika Nilles a veteran of the Jeff Beck band and a highly decorated solo artist in the drumming world. The personal selection process was moving: the band quietly flew Anika to Canada to see if she could help inspire them to play again after the heartbreak of losing Neil Peart. Both Lee and Lifeson documented on socials just how electrifying those first rehearsals were with Nilles noting that hearing their songs come back to life made it all feel possible again. For fans this lineup change is enormous; the Rush fandom is one of rock’s most passionate and some voices questioned whether the band should carry on. However both Pearts wife and daughter released statements on Rushs website expressing support for the endeavor emphasizing how deeply this tour aims to pay tribute to Neil and keep his music alive.

The excitement wasnt confined to the music press. During a live discussion at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this past Sunday journalist Geoff Edgers drew out candid reflections from Geddy about how difficult this decision was and why it took years to even contemplate returning to the road. He explained that for a long time it was unthinkable to carry on without Neil but that recent sparks of creative inspiration and a sense of unfinished business brought them full circle. They plan to play emotionally charged sets in seven cities starting June 2026 and every night will contain special moments to honor Neil Peart and the band’s unique legacy.

On social media since the news broke Geddy Lee has seen a surge of support with clips and messages shared across X Instagram and Facebook. Notably Paul McCartney was revealed as one of the legendary figures encouraging Geddy and Alex to move forward with the new drummer.
