Anika Nilles, the touring drummer for Rush, has launched a limited-edition drumstick collection with Evans and ProMark and unveiled a signature snare drum with TAMA. She has been performing Neil Peart's parts in the band's live shows, adapting her technique and earning praise from bandmates and peers like Mike Portnoy and Devin Townsend, while also receiving the blessing of Peart's widow. Despite briefly losing a drumstick during a performance of 'Tom Sawyer' and a recent illness that caused a concert postponement, Nilles has remained composed and well-received on stage.
