New World Men: The Sound of RUSH

After performing to sold-out shows throughout Eastern Canada, New World Men: The Sound of RUSH, returns to British Columbia with 2 shows in the BC Interior.

Grab your tickets now for this engaging, high-energy show at the Mary Irwin Theatre, Saturday November 14th, 7:30pm. This Canadian power trio has been turning heads for over a decade. Expect a pristine rendition of the RUSH classics, immaculate sound quality, and multi camera / multimedia live video broadcast. “Our goal is to authentically deliver the sounds that RUSH fans know so well – YYZ, Subdivisions, Xanadu, Spirit of Radio, Tom Sawyer, Freewill and so many more. We don't intend to look like the originals, but we certainly do our best to sound like them!”

New World Men's show is a roller-coaster of high-octane rock music with epic guitar solos, drum fills, Geddy Lee’s unique singing style, and intimate acoustic moments: the best of the best of RUSH. “We want our show to be an EXPERIENCE, not just a delivery of one song after the next. That's what we strive to achieve.”

Grab your tickets and bring your friends because this is an evening you're sure to remember.
