A video of a Chilliwack drummer playing all 175 songs by Canadian rock band Rush has gone viral.

Brandon Toews put together an epic 24-minute tribute performance honouring the band鈥檚 late drummer Neil Peart and released it last week.

鈥淭oday marks two years since Neil Peart鈥檚 passing,鈥� Toews wrote on social media on Jan. 7. 鈥淣eil was one of my biggest influences growing up 鈥� I remember spending hours upon hours trying to learn Rush songs like 鈥楾om Sawyer鈥� and 鈥楲a Villa Strangiato,鈥� and watching all of the Rush concert DVDs over and over to study Neil鈥檚 playing.鈥�

In the 24-minute-33-second video, Toews pounds out a few seconds of every Rush song ever released in chronological order.

The YouTube video was published through Drumeo, a music school based in Abbotsford where Toews is a content project manager and a coach. As of Thursday, Jan. 13, the video had more than 198,000 views.

Toews plays 鈥渢he best parts of every single Rush song,鈥� Drumeo stated.

Folks are calling his performance 鈥渁mazing,鈥� 鈥渟imply incredible,鈥� and 鈥渋nsane.鈥�

The story was picked up by Billboard, CBC, Metal Injection, ET Canada and more.

Toews said the response has been incredible.

鈥淚t鈥檚 been so cool to see this video connecting with so many Rush fans around the world and I definitely didn鈥檛 expect it to get so much traction,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t really goes to show how great of an impact Neil had on the drumming community worldwide. It was an absolute honour and privilege to put this project together as a tribute to Neil.鈥�
