Alex Lifeson Helps Dance Duo Cover Rush Classic

(Prog) Alex Lifeson has collaborated with Canadian dance music duo DVBBS on a cover of classic Rush track Closer To The Heart, it's been revealed. The EDM version is set for release early next year and follows Lifeson's guest appearance with former Triumph man Rik Emmett.

DVBBS consists of brothers Chris and Alex Van Den Hoef, whose appreciation for Rush is well-known. Alex says: "They're the greatest Canadian band of all time.

"When we were given the chance to remake a song with Alex, you can imagine how excited we were. We can't wait to bridge the gap between generations."

Chris adds: "I grew up a drummer, so Neil Peart was a legend to me, and a strong influence on my career." Read more here.
