While working at Cleveland’s WMMS In 1974, DJ Donna Halper introduced Rush to an American audience, and her efforts also secured the band a record deal. As a result, the band dedicated their first two LPs to her, cementing her place in Rush history. Today, we’re honored to chat with Donna about her career, her life now, and everyone’s favorite Canadian power trio. We discuss Rush’s journey to the Rock Hall, what their induction ceremony was like and the story behind the infamous Alex Lifeson “blah blah” speech.
