Dogstar is expanding its 2026 summer run, adding U.K. and Ireland stops to its European “All In Now” itinerary. The alt-rock trio will play across major cities and festivals from June into July, giving fans a wide spread of dates to catch their return to the road.
Band background: who’s in Dogstar and why the reunion matters
Formed in the mid-1990s, Dogstar re-emerged as a tight three-piece that blends alt-rock grit with melodic hooks. The lineup features Keanu Reeves on bass, Bret Domrose on guitar and vocals, and Rob Mailhouse on drums. They recorded two albums, split in the early 2000s, and pursued different paths.

Reeves continued his high-profile acting career. Domrose and Mailhouse stayed rooted in music. The trio reunited informally many times, but the COVID-19 lockdowns gave them time together and renewed momentum. They announced a full comeback on social media, played their first major set in two decades in 2023, and released a new record that fall.
The 2023 album, Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees, and their festival appearances helped relaunch Dogstar’s live presence. That momentum carried into a North American tour, and now the band is scaling up overseas.
