Early in his career, Peart's performance style was deeply rooted in hard rock. He drew most of his inspiration from drummers such as Keith Moon and John Bonham, players who were at the forefront of the British hard rock scene.
As time passed, however, he began to emulate jazz and big band musicians Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich.
In addition to being a musician, Peart is also a prolific writer, having published several memoirs about his travels.
Peart is consistently ranked as one of the greatest rock drummers by fans, fellow musicians, and magazines, known for his technical proficiency and stamina.
Peart has received the following awards in the Modern Drummer magazine reader's poll for the 80s decade, Most Promising New Drummer: 1980, Best Rock Drummer: from 1980-1986, Best Multi-Percussionist: 1983- 1986
