Rush for Cover Tribute Album and Charity Auction Coming April 26th

Mention the band RUSH to a music fan and they might describe the legendary Canadian trio as being well known for complex arrangements, powerful drumming, bombastic out-of-this-world synth and the fearlessness. Twice As High Records and JIB Machine Records aren’t trying to recreate that sound note-for-note in their joint release, “RUSH FOR COVER”, landing Friday, April 26; they’re trying to recreate that awesome feeling listening to these songs. “RUSH FOR COVER” features nine, new interpretations of classic RUSH songs by an international cast of independent, underground artists (none of whom are trios themselves). “RUSH FOR COVER” is a RUSH tribute album created by RUSH fans for RUSH fans. The album will be available on opaque creamsicle and opaque sky blue vinyl along with a limited digital release.

Pre-sales begin Friday, March 15, via RushForCover.com. Coinciding with the pre-sales is a charity auction that includes the original painting used for the cover of the album by fan and artist Kelly Drew; a one-of-a-kind test pressing of “RUSH FOR COVER” signed by all of the artists; a stack of original RUSH vinyl (including a sealed, original pressing of “Clockwork Angels”, various promo 12”s and original 45s). All proceeds from the charity auction will be donated to the Glioblastoma Foundation, The V Foundation for Cancer Research (founded by ESPN and legendary basketball coach Jim Valvano) and the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.

The album will be available in Vinyl and Digital download formats only (prices to be determined).
