Rush – First New Material in 5 Years “Snakes & Arrows” for Release on May – North American Tour to Follow

Anthem/Atlantic recording group RUSH has unveiled details of its upcoming new album, entitled “Snakes & Arrows.”  The renowned rock trio’s first new collection of original material in nearly five years, the album will be released on May 1.

“Snakes & Arrows” was recorded in the fall of 2006 with Grammy Award-winner Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Velvet Revolver) and RUSH co-producing.   The album’s first single, “Far Cry,” will impact at rock radio outlets nationwide in mid-March.

RUSH – Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart – will trumpet the release of “Snakes & Arrows” with a full-scale North American tour, the band’s first since 2004’s An Evening with Rush: 30th Anniversary Tour. Further details about this summer’s tour dates will be announced in the coming weeks.

Since releasing its self-titled debut album in 1974, RUSH has been universally regarded as one of the most inventive and exciting groups in rock, famed for Lee, Lifeson, and Peart’s virtuoso musicianship, epic soundscapes, and dramatic lyricism.  The band’s extraordinary body of work has achieved worldwide sales exceeding 35 million units.
