Rush

I'm not sure if their genre would be prog-ish hard rock or hard rock-ish prog.  But that kinda of happens with a lot of bands I like.  I don't think I knew it then, but they started me on this "exploration of patterns in/on patterns" idea.  It's often said that they are one of the few bands that an entire family might like, across all generations, at the same time!  Some more details... They are a 3 piece comprised of Alex Lifeson (guitar), Geddy Lee (bass), and Neil Peart (drums).  They have gone through different phases and explored different influences/styles throughout their career.  While all three are incredible musicians, Neil Peart passed away in 2020.  He is considered of high regard across many genres of fans and fellow musicians.
