Three-piece Rush tribute band Moving Pictures plays The Live Rooms on Station Road to mark 50 years of 'A Farewell to Kings'.
Moving Pictures bring their Rush tribute to The Live Rooms on Friday 21 May, a night that marks 50 years of A Farewell to Kings. They're a full-time three-piece, and the set runs across every Rush era, pulling from the classics and the deep cuts in equal measure.
The band is led by drummer Jamie Dunleavey, with Eóin de Paor on bass, keyboards, violin and lead vocals, and Steve Brown on guitar and backing vocals. They've been on the road since 2023, playing over 70 gigs a year across the UK, Europe, Brazil and Canada. That touring has taken them to Lakeside Park in St. Catharines for the Peart family fundraising weekend, RUSHfest Brazil in 2024 and Massey Hall in Toronto for RUSHfest Canada in August 2025.
Beyond the live shows, they've recorded all six Songs for Neil tribute albums, with Volume 4 released on Neil Peart's birthday and a new studio recording, Volume 5, announced in September 2024. The original members of Rush have had their say too: Alex Lifeson called their arrangement of 'Afterimage' 'very moving and beautifully done'.
