Rush

A Canadian band that started in 1968 with Alex Lifeson, Jeff Jones, and John Rutsey. Rutsey's brother, Bill came up with the name "Rush".

When Jones chose a party over a gig, Lifeson called in his friend Geddy Lee. After the band went through some change-ups, the final lineup clicked into place in 1974 when they added Neil Peart, to replace Rutsey who had health concerns.
