In a full-circle moment that effectively launched the band’s 50th-ish anniversary tour, Rush performed in public with new drummer, Anika Nilles, for the first time at Canada’s Juno Awards in Hamilton, Ontario on Sunday night.

Not only did the group choose to return at their beloved home country’s version of the Grammy Awards, they chose to perform “Finding My Way,” the first song from their first album, the only Rush album not to feature the late Neil Peart, their legendary drummer who died in 2020.
