Alex opens up about his heartbreak and why he couldn’t pick up a guitar for months.Fast forward to July 2025, and Alex was energized, creative and busier than ever, just months before RUSH announced their return to the stage.“You never know where life’s going to take you,” Alex said.Those words couldn’t be more fitting today.
