Anyone heard of her?

[Thenop]

She's done quite some work on Drumeo, years ago already.
Funny thing is, her setup and mainly cymbal choices are far away from what Neil used in Rush, however, he might have wanted to use them.. very dry sounding setup.

She has chops, she can hold her own and sure isn't as groove-less as ol'Clunky.

She does make it swing a bit there, I only remember Neil doing that on Test For Echo.

Can't say I have although checking her out it's good to see she's  jazz fusion influenced..

She toured with Jeff Beck, you don't just get a gig like that.

I have been a subscriber to the nr.1 Dutch drumming magazine Slagwerkkrant since the late 80's. They now have an interview premiere with Annika Niles

A video from Anika's channel came up in my YouTube suggestions. She is as you may know a recording artist in her own right. Downloaded this just now:

Right up my straße. Check this out from about 45:30 in:

Would think she's only doing the Rush gig for the money, like the other two. So I hope she gets a decent cut.

When does the kit revolve though?

[Fishy]

Can she chuck a stick in the air and catch it tho?

[Nick]

Will she be sprinting off stage as soon as she has played the last fill?

[Thenop]

Will she be wearing a specially made drumhat?

[Fishy]

Will she smile and look as if she's enjoying being there..

[Thenop]

yes yes, all the way to the bank she will

Ray will probably have her on minimum wage  😂

He is no longer involved as I understand it. They retired, all of them sold off the music rights and in doing so retired the touring business and everything that goes along with it.
Q Prime is managing them now.
