Rush: Neil Peart Drumset Scholarship announced

Hudson Music has announced The Neil Peart Drumset Scholarship in honor of the late Rush legend.

Applications for the honor will begin in March 2021, with more details to be announced.

Peart passed away on January 7 at the age of 67 after a three-and-a-half year battle with an aggressive form of brain cancer, Glioblastoma, following the Canadian band’s final concert in Los Angeles in 2015.

Rush were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2013.
