Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee Are Playing Rush Songs Again -- For Their Ears Only

In our new interview, Alex Lifeson catches us up on his busy post-Rush life, and explains in detail why he really doesn't want to tour again

The former Rush guitarist is hard at work on new music in his well-stocked home studio, recording guitar parts for the second album by Envy of None, the band he co-founded in 2021 with bassist Andy Curran (formerly of the Canadian rock band Coney Hatch), keyboardist/guitarist Alfio Annibalini, and the talented 27-year-old vocalist Maiah Wynne. He’s also started his own custom equipment company, Lerxst, which sells guitars, amps, and pedals capable of reproducing his classic sounds.
