Geddy Lee continues to make headlines as Rush enters an exciting new chapter. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and GRAMMY-nominated icon recently announced the highly anticipated Fifty Something Tour alongside bandmate Alex Lifeson, marking their first shows together in eleven years. This reunion tour celebrates Rush's storied music legacy and honors the memory of late drummer and lyricist Neil Peart, who passed away in January 2020. The tour will feature multiple stops across Canada, the United States, and Mexico, with shows running through 2027. According to multiple music industry sources, the Los Angeles dates at the Kia Forum in June have already sold out, indicating massive fan enthusiasm for the reunion.

Beyond touring, Lee's creative endeavors remain prolific. Rush's long-anticipated 40th anniversary Grace Under Pressure box set officially released this past Friday and is now available in both 4-CD and 5-LP editions. This special release features a brand-new remix commissioned by the band from original producer Terry Brown, along with the first-ever complete release of the September 21, 1984 Maple Leaf Gardens concert film and album. Lee penned brand-new liner notes reflecting on the album four decades after its original release, offering fans unprecedented insight into the creative process behind one of Rush's most iconic works. The complete Grace Under Pressure Tour Live in Toronto 1984 concert film has also been made available on YouTube and through digital streaming platforms including Amazon Prime.

In his philanthropic pursuits, Lee remains actively involved with Grapes for Humanity, serving on the organization's board of directors. According to the organization's recent updates, Lee participated in board meetings to reflect on their stellar year in 2025 and prepare for their upcoming sixth annual Fine Wine Auction, demonstrating his continued commitment to humanitarian causes worldwide.

Additionally, the Rush catalog continues to receive celebratory treatment with officially-licensed Rush 2112 50th anniversary three-dimensional artwork now available through Artovision, and a new book titled Rush and 2112: 50 Years by author Daniel Bukszpan recently released, further cementing Lee's legacy as one of rock music's most influential figures.
