His shows offer a musical journey through tradition and innovation, filled with wry humor, warm expression, and unforgettable moments. Audiences can expect laugh-out-loud storytelling, the sweet melancholy of ballads, and the passion of gritty blues.

Alongside Rush will be New England-based Brendan Cleary, a lifelong musician, guitarist, vocalist, and composer with a deep love for American roots music.
