Spend the May long weekend with special shows featuring The Tragically Hip and Rush

Rush

Across Canada, it’s our annual May long weekend, in which BBQs and chilling out are often the order of the days (weather permitting, of course – cue the Woodstock “no rain!” chants). Regardless of where you are or what you’re doing, SiriusXM has the perfect soundtrack for your long weekend with special programming featuring two of the biggest bands in Canadian rock history.

Moving Pictures 40th Anniversary Special

This weekend, Iceberg is celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Rush’s classic eighth studio album, Moving Pictures with an hour-long special. You’ll hear from archival interviews from Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart, with the holy triumvirate speaking about Moving Pictures and what the album meant to their career.

Hear the Moving Pictures 40th Anniversary Special:

Friday, May 20th at 6 am/pm ET
