Keanu Reeves is known globally for his iconic roles in film, but the actor’s musical pursuits are once again taking center stage. His band, Dogstar, is set to release their fourth studio album, All in Now, on May 29th via their own Dillon Street Records label. The announcement comes alongside the release of the album’s title track and a comprehensive U.S. Summer tour, marking a significant moment for the reunited alternative rock group.
Dogstar, comprised of Reeves on bass, Bret Domrose on guitar and vocals, and Robert Mailhouse on drums, initially formed in the 1990s and released two albums before disbanding in 2002. After a two-decade hiatus, the band surprised fans with their return in 2023, releasing Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees and playing their first shows in over twenty years. This new album represents a continued momentum for the group, showcasing their enduring creative partnership.
The band’s eagerness to return to the studio was palpable, as Reeves stated, “We couldn’t fucking wait,” adding, “Personally, I loved it all. For me, the attitude was like, ‘let’s work hard and let’s GO.’” Drummer Robert Mailhouse echoed this sentiment, noting, “The album really sets up the energy at the heart of this album and the fun that we’ve always had playing together.” The album was produced by Nick Launay, known for his work with artists like IDLES and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, according to Blabbermouth.
The title track, “All In Now,” offers a glimpse into the band’s current sound and energy. Mailhouse described the song as “whacking you in the head,” emphasizing its potential as a live staple. He also revealed that Reeves himself came up with the song’s title, which encapsulates the band’s present mindset: “It just feels true to us. We’re leaning in, and we are going to keep going.”
Dogstar will kick off their 25-date North American tour on May 28th at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino in Highland, California, with a second California present scheduled for May 29th in Rohnert Park. The tour will then capture them across the United States, beginning August 1st in Austin, Texas, and continuing through September 3rd. A European tour is also planned, bridging the gap between the initial U.S. Dates and the North American leg.

Reeves balanced his work with Dogstar alongside a busy acting schedule in 2025, including projects with Ruben Östlund and Jonah Hill, and a Broadway debut alongside Bill & Ted co-star Alex Winter in Waiting for Godot, as reported by Rolling Stone. The release of All in Now and the subsequent tour demonstrate Reeves’ continued dedication to his musical endeavors.
With the album set for release and a tour on the horizon, Dogstar is poised to reconnect with fans and introduce their music to a new audience. The band’s journey from a 1990s grunge project to a revitalized act in 2026 is a testament to their enduring creative bond and Reeves’ multifaceted career.
