In the midst of a slew of tour dates, grunge rock outfit Dogstar — which features Keanu Reeves as their bassist — stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday night in support of their first album in two decades, Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees.
Dressed in quintessential all-black attire, the band performed their recent single, “Breach,” which features a “nasty bass solo” from Reeves himself. Watch the full replay below.
The appearance marked Dogstar’s first TV outing since Jay Leno’s Tonight Show in July 2000. Formed in 1994, the band debuted with Reeves playing bass, Bret Domrose as the guitarist/vocalist, and Rob Mailhouse on drums. The trio released two albums, 1996’s Our Little Visionary and 2000’s Happy Ending, before calling it quits in 2002.
After reuniting last summer, Dogstar made their live comeback in May at the BottleRock festival. Get tickets for their upcoming shows here.

Dogstar have been trying to make a go of their sleek, post-grunge alt-rock for decades, but bassist Keanu Reeves’ and drummer Robert Mailhouse’s pesky day jobs as actors keep getting in the way. Now they have planned a third album, Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees, due out Oct. 6, and a sleek new video for the song “Breach.”
The track is a slow-throbbing rocker in the vein of Urge Overkill or Queens of the Stone Age, in which singer-guitarist Bret Domrose sings, “And everything you want, it...

Keanu Reeves’ ’90s band Dogstar made their live comeback this weekend at BottleRock Festival in Napa Valley, California.
The band played material from their two previous studio albums, 1996’s Our Little Visionary and 2000’s Happy Ending, along with new songs from their upcoming, as-yet-unannounced album.
Comprised of bassist Reeves, drummer Robert Mailhouse, and singer-guitarist Brett Domrose, Dogstar released two albums and an EP from 1996 to 2002 before breaking up. The band teased a comeback earlier this month, announcing that both new music and live shows were on the way.
In a pre-show interview with Billboard, Reeves described Dogstar as “something that’s part of my life.” Discussing the impetus to reunite the band, he explained, “I missed playing together, I missed writing together, I missed doing shows together. It’s something I’ve always missed. We came to a spot where we weren’t playing anymore, and I missed it … Once we started to play,...

Back in the mid-1990s to the early 2000s, Keanu Reeves co-founded and played bass in a grunge band called Dogstar. After quietly reuniting last summer, the group has announced they will be “rolling out some new music” this summer, to be followed by some live shows.
Update — May 10th: BottleRock Festival has revealed Dogstar will give their first major comeback performance on Saturday, May 27th.
Last week, they shared a preview of a rooftop photoshoot on Instagram, and apparently, the reception was so strong that Dogstar couldn’t wait to share more news. “Thank you everyone for the kind comments. We are overjoyed to see such a response!” they wrote in the comments of the post. “Honestly, didn’t expect this. It makes us want to play out even more.”
